Can't get started...

For some reason I can't get started in my SKofW. I have cut all my bagground fabrics, marked the first four bloks for back basting, and still nothing happens... So I thought, I would show you another SKofW projekt I made this summer.

This was unfortunately not for me - maybe I should make a bag just for me too?
Or maybe I just have to stop talking and instead pull myself together and get started???!!!

Maria, I'm like you - the backgrounds are cut and I've even fixed the applique shapes onto them but that's where it has stopped. So I guess together we should pull ourselves us and get stitching.
