Start Somewhere...

Just start!  Everything has a beginning, so just start.  I've wanted to blog for forever, but always thought,  "Wow, that blog is so amazing, I could never do it that well..."
The danger of comparing yourself to someone else is that it can immobilize you.  I'm seeing their middle or ending, not their beginning! 
Also ringing in my ears is my mother's admonition..."Just because you think it, doesn't mean you need to say it!" (And that is, was and always has been one of my biggest challenges...I mentally try and use the 3 penny rule - each time I speak up in a meeting, I use a penny.  Don't ask how many times that I've actually kept to less than 3, but it does help to keep repeating, "Don't use the penny".)
Initially, my goal is to track my quilting journey.  I've quilted forever (really, forever...at least 20 years) and it's easy to forget where you've been.
Special thanks to Livia, who pushes me to just start.
