Sometimes, when I get behind on a Mystery project, such as Bonnie Hunter's Indigo Way, I find myself getting discouraged. I know it is not some kind of race, but I have a tendency to be hard on myself for not keeping up. This year, we've had some health challenges in the family and we've had to support our family with our time much more so than usual.
I decided, rather than getting discouraged on Indigo Way, I would switch gears to one of my UFO's to make some progress on that front. My first One Block Wonder allowed me time to sew with my Featherweight - always a fun experience - and the larger pieces allowed me to see progress much faster. I was able to get all of the hexagons assembled and now I just need to applique it to the center panel
I do have a question about covering the bear's buttocks on the left side of the panel. My quilting besties suggested I pin it and let it stay on the wall until I felt confident one way or the other. I have made a decision, but I'll share more on that another day.
Do you know what else happened?
I got my mojo back for Indigo Way! Sometimes a change of pace is exactly what we need to get our quilting juices flowing again.
What do you do to get yourself back on track with your quilting?
