I like to test a new pattern or idea, but when I have done that - I often loose interest in the project. It helps me working on two boring ones and a new one at the same time.

My days go outside at summer mostly. After dark and cold winter I want enjoy my garden and outsidelife. Strawberries are ready and blueberries begin to be. I pic lots of wild berries at forests!!Your stars and pinwheels looks great. Prited them for future! Have sewed 3 tops after my quilt show. I love still sewing, but want to do other things too.

The most productive I've ever been was at a weekend long quilt retreat. Everything was cut out and ready to sew ... I felt soooo good about accomplishing the piecing of three quilt tops ... that was over a year ago ... today they're in my sewing room waiting to be backed/sandwiched and quilted. Might be time for a "finishing" retreat... LOL<br /><br />Love the pink and brown quilt ... I just love, love, love scrappy quilts. I find them LESS boring that ones that use a full line of fabric and are very "coordinated".<br /><br />Flatlander (Linda) I believe that repetition leads to boredom … which is why my sewing room is FULL of UFOs.

At quilt retreat I always take about 10 projects just in case I get bored. One of the gals takes 1 project...and I get bored looking at her working on the same thing for 3 days!

Right now I am working on pattern called 'Radio Flyer'. I started it last August:(<br />I was getting tired of sewing little squares to corners....still not done. I think if I had more free time to sew, it would go faster. I do get bored if there are repetitive blocks. Right now I am working on pattern called 'Radio Flyer'. I started it last August:(
