And from the pew on the back row - I suspect that you can exercise until
your brain rattles on both sides - and you still are going to need an
attitude adjustment.
Since I obviously spent my group therapy budget on stash, I don't know how
to help you.
You said,
" I am consumed with the need to finish work. I race through projects,
driving until I get it finally quilted, bound, labeled and -- usually
-- out the door. Or folded and put away. But I'm increasingly not too
happy with the results."
That's a mindset that I find in lots of young people. Doesn't
particularly matter if you're cutting the grass, scrubbing the toilets or
planning a picnic, there's a voice saying ' Damn the torpedoes, full speed
ahead'.
Do try to get past that, Sunny. Some things should be gotten over with
as quickly as possible like getting a flu shot. Quilting is not one of
those. Every minute that you have to create a quilt, slow down and cherish
it. You won't get that minute ever again. Polly
