With only a week to spare, I’m once again finding myself in the situation of stressing out about finishing a quilt for a wedding (Anyone remember my rants from last July?). For this one, I’m close to having half of the binding on, and two more borders of quiltling left.
For so long I’ve been putting this project off–it’s been too hot this summer, other projects were more important, going back to work–and now I’m worried that I waited too long. People keep telling me it’s not a big deal–that even if it’s not finished, I can give it to them after the wedding, but I really, really don’t want to do that. I’m so close, but I have so much to do the next few days (and I recently started knitting a pair of socks, and that’s way more fun right now than flipping out about a quilt being finished).
I’m coming to the conclusing that I love working on big projects until right before I’m finished with it. Stupid, isn’t it?
Go Sarah! go Sarah! Get your bind on!
I totally have that purple swirly fabric…
I do the same thing. Love to think about the project, buy fabric for the project and start the project….until it’s almost finished. I guess we’re in good company.

I know that same feeling,I hope you get it done
in time
Not a good project ender either!!!!
But you got it done with at least a day to spare! It looks SO cool….I want one too.

Thanks for all your motivation! I so needed it in the last hours of finishing it up. I really didn’t think I was going to be able to finish it in time!
