Is there a project you absolutely love, but have been working on it for so long that you begin to dread even the thought of it? This is the love/hate relationship that I have right now with my Tokyo Subway Quilt. Lately I have been feeling a bit overwhelmed by all my WIPS. This year (which is a running theme with a lot of bloggers) I plan on finishing them before I jump into anything else. This is torture because I have so many projects I want to start and there are so many awesome QAL right now. Getting back to the point - see I'm still avoiding it :) I think this is why it has taken me so long to get where I am with this quilt. I fell in love with Elizabeth Hartman's Tokyo Subway Quilt instantly. It's beautiful and so unique and once you get into a groove you can knock them out. I finally got all the blocks done and just started piecing the blocks together today. I have jump started my heart for this quilt again and now I'm ready to getter done :) So here's to all of you who are on the same journey to finish it in 2013!
Hope your having a wonderful day!!

Wow! It is looking awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love this too and was so tempted to do it. I'm not even sure why I didn't. But I hope you can keep at it in 2013. It's going to be awesome!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful! I briefly looked at doing it too, and then chickened out!
ReplyDeleteRight from the start I knew your Subway quilt would be fabulous. Can hardly wait for you to finish it!
ReplyDeleteThis quilt turned out SO beautifully! I totally get what you mean about the torture of deciding to finish all those WIPS first LOL! QALs are so tempting, especially when you are bombarded by gorgeous pics!!
ReplyDeleteOh good for you! I looks great.
