Change in plans again

I still have the placemats waiting on the longarm, but just didn't feel like starting them.  So, today I pieced together 8 rows of another plaid quilt for the homeless.  The ninth row is pieced, but I need 8 more rows to finish the quilt, so I'll put more blocks up with the ninth row on top (to avoid putting two of the same together!).

I had a colonoscopy on Tuesday and still haven't recovered.  Apparently he had trouble because I have scar tissue, so he wants me to reschedule in 3 weeks at the hospital - in case he perforates the colon accidentally.  And today I decided that isn't going to happen.  It's taken me all week to feel somewhat better and I'm not going thru it again.

So, having said that, I've been doing a lot of thinking while I was piecing today.  I need to change some things around here - make some different priorities.  I have at least 10 hand applique projects that are started and a few that I want to start.  Some of those I've started I don't want to finish -- so I'm going to toss them.  I will rethink the ones I want to start also.  I have a whole lot of piecing projects that I haven't started and that includes a ton of quilts for the homeless.  I will make the homeless quilts a priority, but I also want to piece a couple of quilt kits I have that I will give as gifts.

I have a year's worth or more of Skill Builder projects that haven't been started and a couple of All-In-One quilts from Joyce Lundrigan that are waiting in the wings too - I will rethink those also.

Basically, its time to start cleaning out more stuff from the sewing room.  

Until next time....blessings.
