Unlike all those planners out there, I really haven’t made significant craft plans or goals for this year. It isn’t so much wanting to avoid pressure on those days where pressure is totally and completely unwelcome. It is more that I want to maintain the flexibility to work on what I want without engendering feelings of guilt.
We will leave birthday presents, family obligations, and medical appointments completely out of this discussion.
With the Beaver finished, I got to 30% on the Castle before hanging it early in the evening. 1100 more stitches hardly seems to make a dent.
So tomorrow I have two choices – since I would really like to get another one of those projects hanging out for a while completed.
The first is one of the Nora Corbett Bewitching Pixies – I started her in Aug/Sept and have only the bow string (Kreinik) and beads to go. That amounts to less than 350 “stitches.” It is skinned into Pattern Keeper, so tracking isn’t that hard.
My other choices is to work on the 2022 OwlForest SAL – Alice in Wonderland. I have just the last two portions to finish – the rest of the wizard and then the whole of the tea party. This one is imported into SAGA which I find less than easy to use. Probably need to find a tutorial somewhere. It just isn’t as intuitive.
What do you think?
There are days when you need an easy project, days when you need something challenging, and days where you just want to finish something.
So then the question is: how’s today?
Turned out to be a bit of both!
