Don't stop now, just divide it up into small sessions and it will get done. I get bored easily, so I usually have many projects going at a time. You have come too far to give up now. Thanks for the link and mention of my pattern too. You are a sweet friend.Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08676849110885205835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413910935626265689.post-49707098927082326712010-03-12T23:35:10.261-05:002010-03-12T23:35:10.261-05:00Keep Going!!!

I might turn those chunks into some cute handbags or into pillows or.... <br />I sometimes need a bit of instant gratification.

It could be worse, it could be a project that is impossible to complete, by not having enough fabric or the ability. I would encourage you to do the next step, and see if it's not satisfying. You already know you'll love the end results!Pokeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12546013812822816960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413910935626265689.post-89088817031426099612010-03-12T11:07:48.308-05:002010-03-12T11:07:48.308-05:00Oh I love that quilt!

Because a newer one always seems to catch my eye before the older one gets finished.

The quilt is beautiful and it will be so...Hi Renee,<br />The quilt is beautiful and it will be so worth it in the end. This quilt is much like the Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt I am hand sewing. I told my husband I would make it for our 50th wedding anniversary...we'll celebrate our 23rd in August!! No pressure there. Do something like that, not so drastic though. It's a classic quilt, so it will still be wonderful next year and the year after that! Make one of the 9 squares a month. Call it Renee's Square a Month Club and do a post about it when it's done to show it off. It's March now, so you'll be done in December. Make other little projects in between to keep your creative juices flowing, but if you feel inspired one month to make 2 of the blocks, then it's because you "want" to, not because you "have" to. So funny that the song playing on your blog right now is "Free To Be Me". Maybe you can call it Free To Be Me Month...just sew that block anytime during the month. Good name for the quilt too.<br />Ok, that comment was way too long. Just couldn't help myself. It's such a beautiful quilt and I know the feeling of uggghh, this is going to take forever. You just need to break it into little bites...it's much easier to chew!! <br />Good luck,<br />~Karen~Karen from Sew Many Ways...https://www.blogger.com/profile/05258367030113873230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6413910935626265689.post-88418214952556486422010-03-12T05:53:38.803-05:002010-03-12T05:53:38.803-05:00Renne , if you do finish it, it will be lovely and...Renne , if you do finish it, it will be lovely and worth your time.

With your checkerboard, if it is one strip from a variety of blocks, why not cut enough strips to do one block at a time when you are in the mood, or.....make the bag and hide the blocks in it! ha ha. happy crafting, JennyJenny's Place Onlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04128494147048836193noreply@blogger.com
