Sometimes you can combine two quilting ideas in one quilt - then you can kid yourself that you're reducing the number of quilts that you still want to make. It doesn't really work, though, because there are always more designs out there just begging to be made!

Ain't that the truth! I have two on my design wall, one in a box so it stays together, and I'm heading to Walmart to get extra material to finish one of the quilts. Oh yeah, I just got my pattern in for another quilt, Eldon quilt, looked hard, but after looking at the pattern it is only log cabin blocks and stars. Syl

Wait until you are at the point you wake up in the middle of the night and start quilting in your head and can't go back to sleep because the designs won't go away. Makes me crazy. And I'm sleep deprived half the time.

I have one in my machine for FMQ today, an X's and O's ready for borders, a paper-pieced waterfall ready for borders, and three super-sized 3-ring binders full of photos and tutorials and ideas. Like Vicki, when I wake up in the night I'm thinking quilt patterns and fabric combinations and often head to my design wall to move things around. And today we've lost an hour!

Me too. And I wish that when I am at work , and I am thinking about them in my mind--that they would actually get done.
