It was CRAZY here this week & especially today. I was working on a quilting project for someone, and I used some coffee filters to make the minky slide through the machine better (it works awesome by the way - use a SHORT stitch when you do!) I was doing loop de loops and ended up spending about 4 unplanned hours picking bits of coffee filter out from underneath my quilting stitches. f.y.i.
Ugh.
And because this project was due today at noon, I was tweezering away at the back of this quilt like a maniac. There was coffee filter fluff everywhere! Looked like a massacre had happened. Then I had to quickly make up the drapes for my friend's rental house that I have had all month to do, and only did it on the last day in the last hours before my evening meeting of Pathfinders. So naturally I was late, and then gave friend's hubby a hand hanging them in the room, which made me even more late.
Moral of the story? Plan better. Don't procrastinate so much.
