    Recycled Quilting - other people's progress

    while I am dragging my feet, Anita is making excellent progress:
    http://bloominworkshop.wordpress.com/2009/08/18/let-them-wiggle/.

    For six weeks I have been struggling with getting my quilting vibe back and this was meant to be the project to do it for me ... but with my sewing room not yet up and running and us on the trot every weekend, I find it really hard to motivate myself beyond folding laundry.

    But there is light at the end of the tunnel: I'll be off work for two weeks and I intend to sort out my sewing room and get on with my projects: ... I desperately want to finish my Night on the Tiles top for this year's retreat!
