Embarasing Admission

In making the choice to start blogging again I looked back at some of the posts that I had posted late 2017 and others that I had in drafts to see where I wanted to start again. I'm a list maker and like working toward goals as a challenge and many of the posts are relating to that so that got me energized to move forward in this endevor. My enbarasing admission comes in that some of the blog posts in draf, waiting for a finished quilt are still relevant -- 5 1/2 years and still not completed. 

If there was one or 2, I wouldn't feel so bad about this but there are at least half a dozen in progress projects that are still in progress and this makes me feel bad for neglecting them this long. 

I have 2 in the que to be quilted soon and another that I actually finished quilting on last night so it just needs binding.

 
The other 4 remain as they were at the time of the last post. 

I hope that I will be purging more scraps in 2024 as I am trying ot encourage others to do on instagram through a color play challenge that I am posing. This is inspired by a blog that I used to read and engage with that did monthly color challenges that I have lost touch with being away from blogging (and I could not find anything similar on instagram) so that should help to move forgard in another of my long forgotten projects. 


The other 2 sit untouched for no real reason other than I haven't been inspired to pick them back up or being sort of forgotten. OOPS!!


I aim for at least to finish the 3 that are nearly done by the end of the year and make headway on at least one of the others so that these projects can free up space from my craft room and not make me feel embarased, unmotivated or overwhelmed. 

What's your oldest project that you still want to finish? What do you suggest for project that you no longer want to finish or no longer brings you joy?
