Although I haven't been as disciplined as you, and have gone ahead and started and finished many other things. I really want to finish the jacket. I've thought about doing a post like yours to "shame" myself into finishing. Maybe I will follow your lead :) Good luck with the jacket!MushyWearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11298153126878457192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916038188571690726.post-35509059686359536672011-09-18T12:04:27.719+10:002011-09-18T12:04:27.719+10:00Do you want to wear sequins with sequins?

Please, don't do this!<br />Thank you for answering to my questions!<br />About UFOs promise - if i did promise not to make another garment before finishing the previous, I'd just stop sewing! I'm constantly distracting on something else to sew! Somethimes it is because I don't know how to sew or draft particular area, and it takes time to figure it out. Another reason is just I get bored and tired at the end of sewing and put the garment aside, and then procrastinate.<br />I just realized that we are the same age. When is your Birthsday?<br />About the jacket from Burda - hope to see it soon done on you!!! I think the blog is a good way to kick oneself to finish UFOs!MySummerTouchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09031336474768325472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916038188571690726.post-10538013631665755932011-09-18T02:36:59.760+10:002011-09-18T02:36:59.760+10:00Good for you!

I mentioned that I was working on some UFO's to my parents the other day while I had them on the phone.... and it got kinda quiet from the other end! My dad said.... UFO's??? Then I explained what it meant.... he said glad to hear that we don't have to send the men in the little white coats to visit you! <br />The jacket pattern is really cute! Guess I best go check it out! Hang in there... you'll feel better if you finish it.... think of it this way.... if you finish it first... you can reward yourself with sewing something else!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11744073613012413496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916038188571690726.post-90509956789484544002011-09-18T01:03:54.394+10:002011-09-18T01:03:54.394+10:00Hmm, maybe I need a UFO rule.

You should make the shorts, though. Between the jacket & shorts, you might get mugged at the retirement center!Saminahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03997234339953688955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916038188571690726.post-17121099499008563012011-09-17T23:29:55.180+10:002011-09-17T23:29:55.180+10:00I don't like to have UFOs around either, but s...I don't like to have UFOs around either, but sometimes it just has to happen at the change of season. I've got a wool top, cut out and ready to go soon. It got caught at the very tail end of spring.

I actually finish some quilts, but have way to many in the started pile. <br /><br />Since I began sewing clothing I have started and finished each item before starting a new one.
