I used to be a “one project at a time” kind of stitcher but lately I get sidetracked by other projects that I give out as presents so it’s always at least two at a time. Now it gets kind of difficult when I have a deadline for one but I also have to do it in secret… While living with that person and spending a good chunk of my free time hanging out with them! So for the past two weeks I ended up making…about 100 stitches in total 😅

Erm. Well I just looked around my immediate vicinity and there are 4 cross stitch projects, plus one crochet thing and two knitting within arm’s reach. Then there’s all my current sewing stuff, a mostly complete macrame wall hanging and other hibernating projects upstairs…erk.

Variety is the spice of life, and all that!

Oh, and I thought me having 4 yet to start, 2 active WIPs and 2 on hold was a lot 😂

One of my friends has been working hard to get her WIP count down this year. Think she was on 80-something!

We have a long way to go before it becomes a real problem 😄
