Sometimes I just leave it all alone for a while. Enjoy collecting your fabric and looking at your featherweight. When the mood strikes, you'll be ready.

I've been in a funk like that for a while now and there's no good explaination that I can come up. I hope it changes soon.
|
Sometimes it is like that. Don't be hard on yourself. It is to be fun. Not a burden. You will get it back, don't worry.

Thank you Luckylindy for the FW info.

If you don't want to make a scrappy quilt try the "Thinking outside the block" quilt. You need seven fabrics but you won't need anywhere near two yards of each.
|
Quilts have to tell you they're ready to be made. When they speak, you'll be ready.

I've never done a scrappy top because I have no idea what pattern to use and I'm afraid I'll feel I just wasted the fabric. All I did today is straighten up a little and watch TV with my feet up on my sewing table. And to think I just bought a FW. For what? I'm not even using the machine that's set up. I hope tomorrows a better day. :?

As and when the mood takes me I either knit or crochet on some thing small then before you know i HAVE to get back to sewing .

I love picking out the colors, but sometimes have problems finishing. I always start out gung-ho, then seem to lose momentum. Unfortunately, having a deadline seems to help me. I also hate to make that first cut of a fabric. Like to save it. (Hoarding). Don't feel bad we all have our quirks. An easy way to pick colors - find a fabric you like, then use the colors used in the fabric.
