As I mentioned in another post, after a long stretch working on a quilt with manic intensity, I felt the need to do something else. When I have sewn clothing the process has not been of such duration that I felt the need to change activities and would start on another clothing project right away. This quilting thing is somewhat akin to what I have come up against when doing an involved and long running woodworking project. Sometime during the midst of a remodeling project I would feel overwhelmed and need to take a day off to recharge. Do any of you have the same sort of issues? I imagine if the projects one undertakes are of a smaller nature, it would not be a problem. It may be that I am new to the "game" and just that there is a steep learning curve. I am someone who hates to leave something unfinished and will keep at it until it is done. But this quilting thing is something else again. I think it is the fact that it demands intense concentration. Feel free to comment.
