How is January tracking??

I am really trying to stay on task this first month, however I know some things are slipping. Normally, I would be ok about this and just adjust my schedules, but this time I am a little stressed about moving the deadlines.

  • my Sew Mama Sew project (below) where the back is complete and now it is basted.

    Oh, please don’t stress! Quilting is supposed to be joyous, a pleasure, not a rod for your back. My recommendation? Finish the quilt that only needs binding. Then that’s a whole project off the list, you can concentrate on quilting and not get distracted and have to change feet on the sewing machine and other nonsense.

    I am sorry to hear that it is stressing you out – boo! I hope that the slight adjustments you did make give you the breathing room you need. And that is a lot of work you have done already this month. Don’t forget to give yourself credit for all the positives!

    Uuuugh I am very much feeling that slide of the schedule! I’ve seen you work under pressure though, and think you’ll make those deadlines!

    Sorry to hear that it is stressing you out a bit at the moment. Take a deep breath, relax, imagine how great your projects will look and just continue. Sometimes, even when you have a dead line getting closer, it is best not to think about it much and just do it. You are great at what you are doing!

    Quilts take the time they demand. I do think the hardest part is getting that binding on!! Enjoy them and try not to let the stress get to you because it does bad things to the body!
