I need a kind of ROTATION!!

Actually...i can say i am crazy! I started not one but few more projects. It seems whenever i came across one of the charts i have i would like to stitch someday i quickly try and kitted it up with what i have with the threads and fabric and start some stitching on it. Put it aside till i get the time to go further but how can i go further when i am always distracted by other projects???

Now, i decided to make a rotation not specifically for each day but to try and work one of the themes once in two weeks as i can't guarantee working/stitching everyday. Will start work next week after 4 weeks off.


Here are three of the new projects i started: "A Stitcher's Prayer" of LHN, Joan Elliott's charts, x'mas ornament of Blackbird Designs from JCS 2004. I went back to my listed goals end of December, copied and attach it here. This will be my guide for the rotation.


I have try and note a kind of goals for 2008, i haven't done it before. Lets see how far i can get..!
1. 5 PIF that i offered on my blog earlier this month.
2. scissor fob for January exchange


3. x'mas ornamnets & cards(atleast one each month)
4. 3 Joan Elliott's charts for the kitchen
5. start on Sarah Spence 1806 Ackworth Sampler
6. birthday cards
7. a couple of LHN charts
8. atleast 5 prairie schooler for pinkeeps
9. work on Quilt sampler (quilting)
10. a few quilt blocks for ILCS
11. work on a few UFO's Hardanger
12. ...and for a few exchanges as i am sure will join some too




While looking for the hardanger chart i had mentioned earlier i've found these two that was started a long time ago...so better try & work on these too.

Hi Elisabeth, haven't work on it yet. No, haven't seen any of the magazines these last years, really a pity as they are quite good.

Thanks so much everyone for stopping by and leaving comments. I really appreciate them all. Thanks a lot Karan for the well wishes. I felt better this morning and it was a better day than yesterday so instead of taking coffee break we(dh) took off for a walk and while we are having lunch a friend called(same one of yesterday) called if i have time to go with her for a walk. In all, i have walked nearly three hours today!!
Tomorrow, they expect a stormy weather and we are off to the mainland for the day so no walks for me.
