And I would love to join in your Lessons Learned linky party! I can really relate to your "Don't Want To Do" list also.

I definitely agree that it is equally (if not more important) know know what you don't want to do, and you eloquently described many of the items I think it would behoove us all to try to avoid. Beyond that, I am really interested in the Lessons Learned Linky Party, so I will definitely look forward to learning more and participating if I can!Yvonne from Quilting Jetgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15705160384198590025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316079433124165960.post-34341935363527093462015-12-20T23:28:23.971-07:002015-12-20T23:28:23.971-07:00wow....this is fun to read ....so glad you will st...wow....this is fun to read ....so glad you will stay with ABQMQG as you inspire so many of us with your creations. hope you have a happy holiday season with your kiddos and hubby.

It can be so easy to slip into doing things we wouldn't have done otherwise simply because it was spur of the moment. Good luck with keeping true to your goals, I'll be looking out for your linky party! :)Little Black Cat Quiltinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327405982679725981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316079433124165960.post-7215695587754977342015-12-20T06:36:33.924-07:002015-12-20T06:36:33.924-07:00This sounds really great, Afton. YOu have really ...This sounds really great, Afton. YOu have really thought things through. I hope you are able to get a lot done this year, but mostly I hope you enjoy your kids. My daughter is a senior this year and will be going off to college in the fall. It is killing me to think about her not being around everyday. I will only survive because I know she is going after HER dreams! My son is a Sophomore and is learning to drive. Pretty soon, they just won't need me on a daily basis anymore. I know its hard to appreciate the demand of being a mother every day, but the day when that demand diminishes is far closer than you realize. I miss my quilting and going to guild meetings because there just isn't time for it when you work full time and have kids at home. Unfortunately, in a few years, I am afraid I will have more free time than I want. <br />Wish you and your family all the best this holiday season!

It is a really good list, I can definitely relate to most of them! I really like the motion of moving small quilts under my machine for really little detail stuff. But I dream of having a longarm because I want to be able to do that kind of stuff on big quilts without shoving some massive thing around and rotating it a million times! But I think mini quilts will always be done on my domestic. I love the idea of your linky party and will plan to participate!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843675387693755387noreply@blogger.com
