@jenniferhunter Thank you for your reply! I’m actually hoping to do an art quilt because I love doing them. Right now I’m attempting a fabric portrait of my grandson. It’s been hard, but has gotten me working again! I have the quilt sketched out so now I can just think. Takes me a long time to think and plan. Becky

@becsbuddy Having something to focus on really helps to distract us from our issues/pains/everyday struggles. Your portrait quilt of your grandson sounds like a winner! Do you have it sketched out where he is doing something he enjoys [not knowing how old he is]? I know with my quilts and artwork having something pictured in my mind and then challenging myself, or marveling at the outcome, to see how different it is from what I had pictured it is such a treat. I have several MEQs which stands for Mind's Eye Quilts that are yet to be done. I have the fabric, I have the ideas, sometimes just don't have the motivation or the time.
