Finishing is a natural part of the progression - we dream, we begin, we work, we work some more, and finally we bring the project to completion. I think my procrastination with actual "FINISHES" is that I enjoy the process so much, I hate to see it end (particularly when I really LIKE a project I've been working with). I found that working on multiple projects at various stages helps because I am never EMPTY after any particular finish. I have also learned to celebrate each finish with a photo shoot and a reveal post on the blog. All this to say that I totally get the anxiety that you mention with the word FINISH (it seems quite arbitrary, really - crossing that white line, etc.) If you want to change your word - go for it!Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421792039330671346.post-61503038286580147712016-01-14T02:41:12.398-05:002016-01-14T02:41:12.398-05:00When I was first married I read a book that said b...When I was first married I read a book that said before bringing a new item into the house, an old item had to leave. I like your idea of finishing a quilt project and then starting a new one much better. But even more think Wanda has a good idea too with finish one and get to start three new ones! : )June Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04417665719096002149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421792039330671346.post-90770865652893273142016-01-13T14:20:44.975-05:002016-01-13T14:20:44.975-05:00My thought is to finish one for every 3 I start. ...My thought is to finish one for every 3 I start. There is no pressure and it feels good to switch to the finishing mode occasionally.Exuberantcolor/Wanda S Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00064308660138307797noreply@blogger.com
