I know exactly what you mean about dreading a project and then it isn't all that bad.

I also have this unfinished quilt that Andy's grandmother had evidently started and was discovered after her death a few years ago. it was offered to me to finish and of course, I said "Sure!" before thinking about it. So here it sits...and sits...waiting to be finished. I need to do a little fixing to it and it is rather overwhelming but I'm pretty sure that if I just got in and worked on it, it would only be a few weeks and it would be done. And we could use an extra blanket, especially for guests.Mary Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129793790973176351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-27739696616431843122011-10-27T12:26:18.053-04:002011-10-27T12:26:18.053-04:00The couches turned out so well.

My dilemma is always getting started on something. I don't like to have projects in mid-stream, so I don't start for fear of not having time to finish.<br /><br />Today, however, I did do some "dreaded" jobs--cleaning my shower and dusting the wooden blinds-- which took far less time than anticipated. <br /><br />Ah..a new Christmas garland..can't wait to see.angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00688991209865856563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-72930420912991325472011-10-27T10:45:34.634-04:002011-10-27T10:45:34.634-04:00wow! your couch looks great! congratswow! your couch looks great! congratsJessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12338525847541714431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-70181760717807431462011-10-27T09:16:59.911-04:002011-10-27T09:16:59.911-04:00I'm convicted.

It definitely takes away from the beauty of an uncluttered room. I know where I'm headed this morning!<br /><br />And your furniture looks beautiful - congratulations on finishing :)Davonnehttp://www.piercemyheart.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-5328240763458281132011-10-27T08:52:47.998-04:002011-10-27T08:52:47.998-04:00Ouch, ouch, ouch.... boy, did you hit on a sensiti...Ouch, ouch, ouch.... boy, did you hit on a sensitive area - unfinished projects and that overwhelming feeling they give!

It just needs to be sanded and painted. I walk by it and the bins of stuff to be stored on it everytime I go to the laundry. It feels like an overwhelming project, but I know once I start I will get it done in less then two days. <br /><br />Enjoy your day!Wendihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02547001714523524390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-82653461191788783582011-10-27T07:21:21.404-04:002011-10-27T07:21:21.404-04:00Beautiful job.

Left over time? I'd really like to strip some old wallpaper from the kitchen nook where we take our meals and paint. I haven't done that in ages so the intimidation takes on a life of it's own!<br />Blessings, ElaineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-61171508463936153362011-10-27T06:48:58.858-04:002011-10-27T06:48:58.858-04:00Love it, love it, love it.
