A Change in Focus

For several reasons, things are changing around here.  So the focus of this blog may change for awhile, too.  I started this project --- and this blog --- because I have had an abundance of fabric and many projects hanging around and I had hoped to do the clearing out that needed to be done by completing what I have had planned.

I now see that I have less time than I had imagined --- and less space than I have previously had! This means that many of the projects which I had hoped to complete this year must find new homes and be completed in wonderful ways without me.

At the midpoint of the year, I have quilted nearly twenty quilts (but if they are not bound I cannot officially count them, according to the initial rules of this blog!) and I am now working hard to shed others before they are complete.  And it's OK.  I shall continue to write about them and the progress I can make with them --- and the joy I find in sending them off to their adventures with other creative people.  Because the reasons I planned and began them in the first place were not just to prove that I am capable or creative, but to share love --- and a bit of myself --- with others.  And I hope to do that in other ways, now that my time and space are different.
