Although these posts are supposed to be about the shop, the unfinished quilts that end up on my list usually start as a shop sample or a new idea for a class. I can't help it--surrounded every day by fabulous colourful fabrics, the temptation to start something new is too great. Usually by the time I finish a sample the fabric in the quilt is no longer available. So I start a new one with new fabric--its a vicious cycle!
I work well to deadline(and sometimes not) and this past year I found myself putting off doing THE LIST quilts because the year end was so far in the future. I have long suspected that procrastination and deadlines were cut from the same cloth. Like night and day, we can't have one without the other. Well, here we are; December is almost over and there is no way, not even with a month of Sundays before me, that I will finish ALL the quilts on the list!
So I have made the decision to divide THE 2012 LIST into 12 months, and I will post a new list every month. (This also saves the embarrassment of posting the whole list all at once.)
So here is the list of the unfinished projects I will complete by the end of January. Drop by the shop to see what gets completed. Or, better yet, send me your list and challenge yourself to complete a few of your own UFO's.
