A Fork in the Road

I've come to one. When I started making hexagons 6 months ago, it was just to see if I liked the process. I love hand sewing (sorry I do) and I was on board with the take along aspect of these things. I liked it. Then I got busy and they got buried. Literally. Fast forward to coming across Texas Freckles and her quilt along.

So here is my delimma. Do I go on as I started or do I allow myself to be completely taken in by her charms. You see, she is doing a hexagon charm quilt. That is where no two fabrics are alike. By her calculations I will need 1,173 to make a quilt approx 50 x 59. I really want to be commited to finishing this quilt. I just don't want to be commited, I've got a grandchild on the way for goodness sake. Poor child.... I had a gramma but she went crazy making hexagons.......

Of course this could be like my coffee addiction. I talk about intervention but when I comes down to it, if you tried, I might have to kill you. Maybe I've made my choice. Hmmm, crazy gramma it is.
