I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m really a monogamous stitcher at heart, but like most other stitchers' I want all the charts and want to start them straight away.
In the scheme of things my collection is small, 8 fully kitted projects, 5 part kitted, about 10 charts in waiting and just 6 wips, but I find it overwhelming.
I don’t know what to pick up next and have a
feeling of guilt that my chatelaine has been sitting there since 2021 and is
still not finished , so how some of you have in excess of 40 wips waiting
to be stitched is beyond me!
Anyway, for the time being I’ll carry on as I am and at some point try and get some structure to the way I work on my projects, in the hope I can feel better about the ones that are just languishing in project bags.
Over the last weekend I worked on ‘Which Witch?', from La-D-Da and made a good bit of progress on it.
This is where it was left after one day of stitching when I started it on 9th September.
I wouldn’t usually
choose to stitch on darker fabric but this was purchased as a kit and I have to
say I’m loving this Roxy Floss Co ‘Ooak’.
This is where I am now, after a further 4 days.
Happy Stitching!
Sue

ReplyDeleteIt's stitching up so fast Robin. I think it's to do with not having to keep changing the colour of the floss!! Happy Stitching! PS. can you send me a link to your blog please?
DeleteHi Sue! I would if I had a blog, but I don't. Are you on Instagram?
DeleteOh, I thought from your profile, you had a blog. I'm on Instagram as the same, I'd rather be Stitchin and I'm in a few facebook groups too. x
DeleteYou are moving right along Sue! Love your needle minder! I have many projects started, I think because that is my favorite part of stitching....putting that first stitch into a piece of virgin fabric. I just go where my heart/needle lead me, but I do get the "guilts" often when I realize how much I have waiting on the side lines.
ReplyDeleteYes, she's growing fast!! I've not done many monotone projects but I'm loving how quickly I'm getting through her. Happy Stitching! Sue x
DeleteBeautiful stitching Sue. Where have I been that I’ve never even heard of Roxy Floss? I must investigate!
ReplyDeleteOh Margaret, where have you been, Lol!! Check out Evertote, as they are the sole distribituers I believe. Also check out their floss tubes, Off the Grid Needlearts, and Evertote, Notes from the Workshop. I'm sure you'll be hooked! Happy Stitching! Sue x
