Funny, I was  just thinking recently that in 15 years I will be 80 years old!   YIKES! Of course, that’s if I make it to that age.  And I have been pondering what can I accomplish in 15 years if I set that as a goal to use up my stash and finish all my UFOs?  And there I am, stuck!  It’s somewhat overwhelming!  So, I have decided to go ahead and sort my larger bins full of scraps, about 6 of them, and organize them by size and color.   At least 3 of them are 2.5 inch strips, full and partially cut.  But then, I think I need to finish what I have going on first.  I believe I am at 34 UFOs in various stages and I really want to get them finished.  I am down from 63 from the beginning of this year, some were given away, actually finished or dismantled and put back in with the scraps.  And I have 3 coming back next week from the quilter.  So, I will do a combo of each day, a little sorting and a little sewing, at least for now.  And I will continue to donate scraps and yardage to the guild.  Oh, and that does not include projects that people leave for me to finish or those wayward UFOs that keep showing up at the Home for Wayward Fabric.  I guess this is the long way of saying NO to new projects online or otherwise until I have nothing else to make.  yeah, right.

    I used to feel the same way but now I just really want to get them finished and on their way. Also, I have a goal of 24 donation quilts by the end of August and I only have 8 more to go!

    I try not to think about whether or not I can use my stash in my lifetime, pretty sure it is not possible, yet that does not stop me from buying more and starting new projects.
