I did have something to make my Plan "B" ing better. I got my win from Bec Clarke as part of the May Giveaway Day. I got to choose a pendant, and she promised some surprises. Well, the pendant is incredible and the surprises are great. I got a coin purse, an Australian magazine with stitchery and quilting, my new favourite combination, some fabric and a charm pack of Fairy Frost by Michael Miller.
Last week I was trying to frantically get my table runner done for my guild meeting. We had a block swap and I was in 2 groups, brights and country. I decided to try something that I had never done before by making it 2 sided, with the bright side for spring and summer and the country side for fall.. For a while I thought I might need to Plan B it to, but it turned out okay. It turned out okay but I was finishing it up 5 minutes before I had to leave for the meeting. I had some extra batting hanging out of it, and when I went to cut it I ended up cutting a hole in the binding instead. I stitched it up anyhow, and hid it behind Ariane's amazing bags at the meeting.
The meeting was supposed to be the last on the executive as the newsletter editor. I told my husband to stop me from signing up for anything else for the executive and I ended up becoming the webmaster. So much for Plan A, again! Luckily, my dh knows me well enough and is supportive enough to laugh at me when I told him.

I have to say though that I did start to enjoy most of my projects more when I was selective about saying "No!"
I often get to plan "C" before it all comes together.
Michelle...love your table runner(s). happy web-mastering:)
In case you are reading this...I will be at the store this morning with your quilt.

table runner is great, must try that some time. thank goodness for plan B as sometimes nothing would get done in this house with out it
And here I thought we were the only ones with Plan A and B.It is always good to have the option.
Love your table runner.
When I taught my class last week I tried to let the women know that - sometimes it is ok to make a mistake and go with it or take another direction that originally planned. We all really do too much, too I think. We need to do less.
