Unfinished Projects

I have been in a rut.  I have so many unfinished projects I haven't been able to focus on just one.  I sew for a while on one project, find myself bored and unmotivated, and then move on to another unfinished project.  All this unfinished business calls for a plan.  I took pictures of my unfinished projects and decided to focus on just one.  When that one is done, I get to pick another, then another, and so on.  I just have to keep focused and finish something!  I am working on this charm quilt I started last summer.  It is going to be a wedding gift for my daughter's friend.  

When you make your blocks, do you trim for accuracy? 
 I found it necessary with this quilt.  Those little pinked edges from my charm pack throw off my 1/4" seam I think.  Anyway, after trimming, I am now ready to lay out my blocks into a pleasing arrangement.
