Okay, That’s It!

I’m tired of my startitis. No more. I have projects in various states of progress all over the place and I have actually lost my Halloween project. It was a cute purple bat with plaid on its wings that said “Drop In For a Bite.” Isn’t that cute? Yeah, it was neat, but it’s missing. Crud.

I’m sick of this. So, I have decided that enough is enough. No more new starts until I have some finishes. I’m not going whole hog or anything, I just want 5 finishes under my belt before I can start something new. I think that’s a reasonable goal that I can actually live up to, so let’s go for it.

And my first finish is the model I’ve been working on for The Sweetheart Tree. Another one will be Winter Dragon on Leslie’s RR, when I finally can get it finished. I have to say that Winter Dragon is giving me fits. I know that it’s giving Leslie fits, as well, so I don’t feel too bad in saying that I will be happy to see it go home to Leslie when it’s done. 🙂

    I am actually having the opposite…finishitis. I can’t stop working on Stargazer. I want to finishe her so bad, I can’t make myself work on my obligations.

    I wonder if Christine and Outi will also feel the same way about Winter:) I did find some extra bobbins of the 042 blending filament so I will defintily be sending some your way if you still need.

    Good luck changing your startitis to finishitis, Jenna! I do sympathize (and suspect there are MANY stitchers out there who do!). How’re you feeling these days? Thinking about you … take care!!

    I plan on starting winter tomorrow – and now I am not looking forward to it! lol! Perhaps knowing the issues I will go in prepared.

    Did you see Cathy lost a project too? Maybe they’ve run off together!

    And, if you are bored with your five, I can send you five from here : ) LOL

    Good for you! I am tired of all my WIPs sitting around too. I haven’t lost anything yet, but I get tired of having to raid a WIP for thread to work on something else. Sigh. Let me know how it goes with your five project finish goal!
