Quilting Update!

I wasn't sure how to title this post I want to do a monthly or weekly update of what I'm working on to just sort of say "here's what I'm working on...". I have so many projects in the works but by know means am I able to have finished projects to blog about all the time. I work a regular 40 hour a week job and have to make time for sewing and quilting, sometimes it's just overwhelming. I have so many ideas to share and projects to do and such little time to do them that it almost gets depressing like "I'll never finish this", "or get to that". Anyway enough of my ranting.

So here's what I'm working on...
These are those chevrons I was blogging about a while back. This is how I ended up arranging them, staggered instead of rows. I'm still quilting this, about half way through now. I like that I'm in no hurry to finish this although I had planned on finishing it around the first of the year so I'm a little behind. The end result is suppose to be a yoga mat(yes that means I've been procrastinating exercise till it's done). kinda been a lazy Sunday for me I'm still hand stitching the binding on my other quilt(which is still a surprise so I'm waiting to share) I've been doing that mostly in my evening time in front of the telly. I have several other projects in various states of unfinished-ness three more that are actually pinned and ready to be quilted and two finished tops. I plan to make several more sewing bags for friends and family(as time allows or as birthdays pop up) I really could go on with my laundry list of ideas but I don't want to bore you too much, let's just say I keep a list(on paper) of all my to do's and ideas.

How do you make time for quilting? Do you have a stack of unfinished projects needing your attention?

Thanks for reading♥
