But not to any particular quilt. I have been making a few tops. I need to sell them to buy batting to make others, but if I don't sell them I can not buy more batting, so the pile of tops gets higher and the pile of completed, going no where, and It may take a few more weeks before I can start my new job. Of course, Now that I can piece I feel like quilting, and when I have batting I feel like piecing.

Going insane right now.

rofl!

Well, you could sell a few tops alone to get your batting...that may get some momentum behind you!

Aw, hugs! I do know the feeling.....like Rebecca siad, maybe you could post a few at the classified and sell them, and get yourself a few battings!
Heres what I've been doing...a change jar. Every extra cent I find, goes in there, and if I DONT need it for an emergency, (THAT happens too often), I can get a little something when its full!
GOOD LUCK!

She has never acknowledge my birthday, and she says that Christmas is only for the kids, even though she always expects something. For the last few years we got her nothing and she wasn't very happy. Besides, even if I explained to her what I need, she wouldn't understand. Now..if it was gossip, that she DOES understand.

I'd like to know just where you met my MIL.

LOL!! Somewhere between NY and AL, even though mine never goes anywhere.

Keep making the tops. Someday you'll find the money for batting, then you can get them all put together. It's a bugger to be broke.
