Reality Bites

When you look at starting a new project do you stop and actually think through everything that's involved?

I obviously do not.
How do I know this?
Because yesterday afternoon when I was cutting for my Liberty Spools Quilt it dawned upon me..... 
Oh my 100 spools means 400 HST!


Oh well, cut now. Better start drawing some lines on these white squares.

hugs, Sharon

    Just close your eyes and jump in the deep end is my motto lol
    If you conquered that glacier quilt this will be a breeze for you.

    I think that deserves a good TV night or some company. Or - do 100 and some sewing - then another 100. etc

    he he, I find the same sort of thing happening to me--I don't stop and think until it's too late :-) I think it will be worth it though, Vintage Spools is a gorgeous quilt.

    the worst is over, all the cutting out and now once the lines are drawn you can enjoy the stitching and putting together, hurry up we want to see the finished quilt no pressure on you though

    Hey Sharon this is nothing compared to the glacier quilt is it??? Look like you have done most of the cutting already. I am sure you will do a magnificent job!
