It’s official. I did it. I dumped the 50 Projects Challenge. I failed. Miserably. I had the best of intentions, but the way I’ve been treating exemptions, I obviously cannot, realistically, hold myself to this challenge.<\/p>\n
So, say goodbye to the 50 Projects Challenge<\/a> and hello to the first in a string of many 10 Projects Challenge<\/a>s.<\/p>\n I feel much better about this. It encourages me to finish projects in my stash and yet allows me to still acquire new items with minimal guilt. I am going to try to limit myself to the purchase of one<\/strong> new chart or kit after each successful completion of a 10 project challenge. I think that’s pretty reasonable.<\/p>\n I made the official start date May 1st, since I have not actually purchased any new charts since my trip to Shepherd’s Bush in Utah in March. Okay, well, I purchased a Story Keep chart from Heaven and Earth Designs the other day… But, considering the massive amounts of temptation sitting at my fingertips due to the inception of One Star’s Light<\/a>, I think that I have been an awfully<\/em> good girl!<\/p>\n I’ve had 6 finishes since May 1st, so I only have 4 more projects to go before I get a reward. Yippee! I think I’ll be able to do that sometime this month and then buy one of the charts that is calling me with its sweet, siren song. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n Thanks for your input!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s official.
