It’s simply lovely , and when you do finish it you can reminisce about the years you spent making it , and what was happening in your life at the time. You’re sewing memories into that quilt! <br /><br />I think your Fire in Pateros quilt is telling you to slow down and make this quilt while reflecting and making the journey to a finish. This is a therapy quilt. <br />Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11032969125788408807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-39005377826428847732015-02-14T08:16:08.254-08:002015-02-14T08:16:08.254-08:00LOL, oh dear!

I am amazed and impressed and these all look like they are going to be stunning. It seems to me that things take as long as they take, but if your progress on the Fire in Pateros top is bothering you, then as Susan says at the top, maybe you just have to get on with it! :-)Kajahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417544341324291385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-38481987650604259272015-02-13T21:53:59.489-08:002015-02-13T21:53:59.489-08:00It's great to have a tour through your awesome...It's great to have a tour through your awesome projects. I know what you mean that you can have so many that it gets a bit overwhelming. You always manage to make progress though. Your marsala stack is looking pretty, I wonder if you'll be able to resist. I wish the deadline for the challenge was a bit further than April. I pulled out an awesome marsala fabric I have, an old linen curtain with big birds on it, then put it away because I really, really don't need another project right now, but the thought of it keeps creeping back...Rachaeldaisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15437603769773251690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-33939382225336525652015-02-13T08:33:59.112-08:002015-02-13T08:33:59.112-08:00Wow, that's an impressive display of works in ...Wow, that's an impressive display of works in progress!

The best start for me always is to really make the decisions on which quilts I am really going for at any one time and to put the rest away. Really away like in a box. It always feels like a relief and sets my mind free to work on the 'chosen ones'.

So the rate at which you work on it is the perfect rate. And you have the voice inside you that is telling you that you really want to make this quilt, so you know that you are doing the right thing. All your projects are beautiful, by the way.nestkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02188277828934423568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-67793106504855620232015-02-12T19:35:47.265-08:002015-02-12T19:35:47.265-08:00I think you quite easily might have more going on ...I think you quite easily might have more going on then I do!! when will I ever just work on one quilt? never most likelyKaren - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-27383923850608888362015-02-12T18:35:57.149-08:002015-02-12T18:35:57.149-08:00Too many complicated projects going at one time! l...Too many complicated projects going at one time! lol I may have lots of projects, but they aren't complicated or thought provoking.

I am trying to concentrate my attention on just one UFO until it's done. So far, so good. Are you freehanding the letters for your "fire" quilt? I have a quote I want to put on an upcoming quilt and can't quite come up with lettering that satisfies me. I have a projector that I could blow-up the letters and trace them on a paper on the wall but I'm not sure that's the direction I want to go either.

I agree, to finish such a project you are going to have to put your big girl pants on. ( in Australia we refer to trousers as pants) .....and push through a little. Sounds like giving birth.....sorry didn't mean to get too personal...but you know what I mean. I am also with you on the fusible stuff.
