WIPocalypse February

 Cat Cushion
 Little Fairies at Play
Sunflower Swirl


Time for our second WIPocalypse posting.  I worked on all of my projects.  This week I am working on Cat Cushion and have 2 more days in my rotation.  Not in the stitching mood this week as it is moving slowly.  I hope to pick up the pace and make some good progress in the next 2 days.

This month I am to tell you how many projects I feel comfortable working on at one time or if I am a one at a time project person.  When I first started stitching I only worked on one project at a time.  And the projects I picked were always large projects and I would get bored and put them down for long periods of time.  Then I stumbled onto the internet and a discussion on rotating projects.  I gave it a try using the stitch for 10 hours and then move onto the next project in my rotation.  And that worked for a while but it was hard to track my hours.  So I changed my rotation to a weekly rotation switching projects every Sunday.  Some weeks I get alot of stitching time and others I don't.

I currently have 3 projects in my rotation  - a small, medium size and large.  I have had 4 projects in the past and felt comfortable with that many.  But my large project is really large and I want to finish it up in my lifetime so I cut back to 3 projects so that the large one will come up more often.  Maybe someday when I retire and have more time to stitch I will add more projects to my rotation.

What cute kitties! I used to be a one-at-a-time stitcher too. Now I have about a dozen in my rotation.
