Decisions decisions

Confusion seems to be my daily norm anymore. Cant make up my mind about the simplest things. I want to start a new quilt cant decide on the pattern for the material I want to use. Want to do better in school cant focus on the study material. My mind will not cooperate! Tried to watch The Mirror has two faces with Barbra Streisand this morning and could not stop thinking.I love her movies by the way. Yentl was one of the first movies for me, A star is born, fanny, all great movies in my opinion. Love stories always get to me I guess because all my life I have been missing that romantic connection. Someone special who truly gets me........

Forgot I had even created my own blog spot until I started following some quilting blogs to learn better how to quilt. I am still unemployed but have been in school studying and finished my associates degree this year in May. Decided I needed a new sewing machine so that I could take up quilting, when I read about the Quilt of Valor society. I hope to start on my first quilt for a service person next week. It will be a challenge to come up with funds for material but, I am hopeful that I can get some donated on Craigslist. I have enough to start my first quilt and am trying to decide what pattern I want to use. After I finish the first one I will worry about the rest. No sense looking for another worry right. I had hoped to find a couple of locals who wanted to work on this project with me however most seem to be in Virginia Beach and since I no longer want to drive very far it seems I will do this alone. Well if you live in Chesapeake and want to join me just drop me a email and we can set something up.
