Finsihing projects

I have always had a problem with finishing my projects. I come up with the quilt or item I want to make, get all the material needed, cut the shapes strips for the entire project and get maybe ( 1 ) or ( 2 ) rows completed. Then I stop. It takes me a couple of weeks to get the top done and then that is it, UNLESS it is something that someone wants to purchase or if it is a gift for someone. I wonder how many quilters and crafters have the some problem as I do. I know at this point in time I have about ( 5 ) quilt tops done, and ( 1 ) on my design wall.
Happy Crafting.

"Hebrews" Coffee Card ( Skipping Stones Design ) Oct 16th Blog Hop

Hi everyone and welcome to Skipping Stones Design's October blog hop. For my card I have decided to use the Coffee stamp #2 . I colored the coffee cup with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers . This is a Digi stamp so after printing I did wait 24hr before coloring with the Alcohol markers to make sure the ink is completely dry, so I do not have any mixing of the printer ink with the alcohol marker colors. I had a great time creating this card. Please scroll down for pictures, supplies ( link's ), a how toooooo, and a tutorial at the end. Make sure you visit the links below to see other cards made by Skipping Stones Design Team.

The cup stamp is coffee stamp #2 it is Colored with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers. Cut White card stock to 4 1/2 x 5 and Decorative Card stock to 4 1/4 x 7 7/8 inches. Add some silver Sparkle Tape

Working with the Gemini Apple Core Dies

Tips for sewing Apple Core Shapes..... This will go on Sale on HSN January 24th., they will go fast make sure you get yours. 1st you will have one that will go sideways which is the Con-Caved Core and you will have one the will be long ways. You always want the con-caved Apple Core on top when sewing together. So my Con-caved apple core is the red strips, fold in half and press a seam. The yellow one fold in half long ways and press. Put right sides together and place the pressed seam on top one an other and pin. This is very important to sew straight. Now match up and pin both outside corners. The fabric will be buckled like the picture and that is fine. It should look like this when taking to the sewing machine. Below is a little video on sewing Apple Core Shapes.
