Harder, longer work than anticipated

I have often written that quilting takes longer than I think it will -- always. I'm writing the same thing again. The not very complicated, not very big quilt I'm making was one I was sure I'd have finished yesterday or today at the latest. But it's not done, and probably won't be done until Monday even though I expect to work on it tomorrow also. I'm eager to get on with some other quilts and feeling pressured also to get the sewing room picked up and neatened so I can do some much needed ironing. In the matter of how long it will take to make a quilt it's a matter of live and not learn.
