I am sitting at my desk, ½ of which I can actually find and looking at this lovely felt type bin that I picked up at CostCo a while back. It contains a neat row of project bags. Each one of those bags has within a stitching project. Each project has at minimum, pattern (or floss key), fabric, thread, and a needle. Some in addition might contain a seam ripper if there have been more than a few errors. Or a pair of scissors because I dropped them in, or who knows what else.
What I am finding disturbing is the number of project bags. Five contain stitch-a-longs from last year. Of those – two actually completed last year and then other three have portions still to be released. There is one bag containing a SAL from 2020 which I finished about ½ in 2020 and then ignored completely last year. There are four bags with singleton projects (two of which really don’t even count as started).
I then need to add in the LongDog Sampler and the Spangler full coverage piece.
Oh, and then there is the bin downstairs and one project all but the frame finished on scroll rods…
That isn’t all that many, right? At 1000 stitches distributed a day – why I can finish everything started and everything planned right around my 200th birthday….
