I knew what I wanted to do, but I just felt really uninspired. All the fabric I picked out to work with wasn&#8217;t quite right, and then my quilting space was wrong and, etc. etc. etc. The point is, it wasn&#8217;t happening. Not even a little.<\/p>\n<p>In writing when this happens and I find that I am fighting myself to get something done, that means the timing is not right. In the case of a story it means I need some more time to let it stew around in my subconscious before I try to put it onto paper, or if I&#8217;m revising it means I need to separate myself from the project for a little while and then come back to it with a fresh perspective. It turns out that in quilting, the same is true.<\/p>\n<p>Now is not the time for me to be working on that project, so I&#8217;ve put it on hold and I&#8217;m currently drafting a couple others. I say a couple others because I&#8217;m apparently totally indecisive right now and I can&#8217;t choose which of several ideas I want to full develop into a mystery quilt. Or, more specifically, which one to do first.<\/p>\n<p>I may come to a decision all by myself (like a grown up!) or, I might come to you with several options and do a poll to see what you&#8217;d like to do. We&#8217;ll see. We&#8217;ll see very soon as I&#8217;m hoping to have all my rough drafts done tonight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had a project I wanted to do, the Meta Project, but I just couldn&#8217;t seem to get started on &hellip;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/unstuck\">Continue reading &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-274","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=274"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":275,"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274\/revisions\/275"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=274"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=274"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.jofigure.com\/quilts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=274"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
