I'm in trouble. Now I have a new deadline.

Our lives are more than just sewing (did that come out of my mouth?????) So after work, fix supper, eat and then dedicate 1 1/2 hours straight to working on the quilt every night. You'll have it done in no time, with time to spare. When you've reached your limit for the night, put it away until tomorrow. Give's your hands and eyes a rest and a chance to renew your spirits for the next day. Keep us updated. Good luck.

You're much closer to being done than you realize! If when you get home from work you only do the essentials and make working on the quilt #1 priority I have no doubt you can finish this!!! Looking forward to the post that says, I did it AND with time to spare! :-)

So, I'm going to visit at the end of May. (They live in California, we live in Utah.) Last night I found out I'm invited to a baby shower while I'm there. That gives me less than 2 weeks if I want to finish in time for the shower. YIKES! I'm going to to do my best to get it done but have a backup gift just in case.
I need all the motivation I can get. Anyone want to join my cheering section. LOL
