Rebecca Nevard wrote a new post, N.S.F.W. – No Sewing For Weeks (Tales of a Part time Quilter). Loving the Alien and The Art of Letting Go. 8 years, 2 months ago
Hey fellow Quilters. Now that Spring is starting to finally show her face, the annual spring clean has started. Today I wanted to talk about Loving the Alien (no not my favourite Bowie tune, although I could wax…

Really hit home – this one. I have some Aliens but also some UFo. I actually read this post this morning and then went and threw away a horror of a quilt top that I knew I should never have started and certainly won’t finish. THANK you for your post – it was just what I needed!
-
Well done! The first step is always the hardest

Great read Rebecca – nicely written, very funny but with a deep, deep message – I loved it
-
Thank you

I love how you have applied the Letting Go strategy to quilting aliens and UFOs. Its a nice easy step by step process, that I think it worth a try on my own stash.

I’m very glad you like it

Loved your blog Abigail I’m a great starter of things (head just brimming over with ideas, and defo a bit out of control lol) and in an ideal world I would finish it provided life didn’t get in my way!!! It does though, of course I’ve signed up to catch your blogs too. X

Thanks for visiting and taking the time to comment Ingrid. I think many of us are the same – sometimes we have to get something out of our head even if we don’t finish it straight away …. to free up some space for more ideas!!!

Great blog, Abigail. Lovely to see the Stash Bee quilt finished – that’s such wonderful riot of colour and pattern! We all need some motivation to clear those UFOs! Looking forward to seeing your progress next quarter. The Hathaway Exhibition last weekend was my motivator – talk about just in time Xx

Lovely to see you here Karen!! So today is the 01 April and there’s not that many ticked off the list …. oh well they can roll over to Quarter 2! A quilt show is always a good motivator in my opinion.
