    I have read almost all 11 pages of this post and I am ashamed to say that I think I have done ALL of the above, especially the ones committed by the quilters who live alone. The only that that comes before quilting is my 27 month old great grandson that I care for 2 days a week. He comes first!

    I am shamed to admit that I started a quilt for my DD, lost my DH last year & still can't pick up DD's quilt & finish it just sits there untouched. AND now making quilts (with some help from this board & personal friends) for fire victims & have no idea when I will be able to pick DD quilt to finish. PLUS my DS is also waiting for a quilt & I have a new GreatGS due in May. Oh my - shame on me....
