It is not possible for me to focus on one project. Just can’t happen. Sometimes I do better than others, but this past weekend, I was all over the place. I need to work on my One Monthly Goal, and I did, but not nearly enough. I would quilt a few inches and go on to something else.
This weekend, the quilt guild has an all day workshop for machine quilting that Lynn and I are going to. I need to prepare some practice sandwiches. It should take like 15 minutes to do a bunch of them. Did I get it finished. Nope. I got a few done and my mind wandered to something else. I went back to piecing the quilt above. I have no idea what this is going to look like and I over complicated things (even though it does not look complicated). I put it on my design wall and was initially going to have columns of 30. Then I changed to 26, but did not adjust on my design wall. Normally it would not be hard, but the colors go down/up down up, so I can’t just grab the next 26. Every other row I have to work from the bottom up or the colors will look goofy. When I get it all pieced it will make sense, I hope.
Happy Sewing
Happy Quilting

Nobody can really focus on one project at a time! People who do are lying, I am sure :p

Just do what makes you happy… that’s what quilting is all about!! If I would HAVE to finish a project before I started another it would be stressful , why quilt then as there’s enough stress in this world.

I can completely relate, though in my mind I always plan to just focus on one thing…and then…distraction 🙂

I focus better when I’m working on several projects at a time. It may take longer to finish, but when I do it’s generally one right after the other.

I can’t do one thing at a time, either. This morning I cut some squares for my Christmas quilt, but I couldn’t stick with it long enough to get some to go around the stocking. I hate cutting out bunches of things. All this might explain why I’m a scrappy quilter. LOL

Looks like in the good company of flitters here. Like a butterfly, I flit from one sweet flower to the next and have a taste of each then coming back to the first till it’s all done. Even my friends who quilt diligently, flit. I think it’s part of the creative process.
