This month's WIPocalypse question is: What is your comfort zone regarding the number of projects to have kitted and in progress at any one time?
I think I currently have 15 wips. I did have 20 but finished 5. I have learned to have a mix of project sizes that helps to keep the projects moving. I do have some kitted up waiting to be started. I have a large stash and want to stitch all the projects in my stash. So I have really only been buying floss and fabric. A new pattern has to really grab me for me to add it to my stash.
Here is what I worked on this month:
Autumn Sampler. I started this one in January and had not touched it since. I pulled it out and made some good progress on it.
Gnomes. I worked on this one for one evening.
Homestead Harvest. I took it off the scroll rods. It is a very soft material and it is going better in a hoop. I am working on the white house.
Made more progress on What a Hoot. I hope to get this one finished in September.
Butterfly Fairy Night got some attention.
I had a new start. This is Bright Owl Quintet from Cross Stitch and Needlework Sept 2014. This will be Owl #6 as I have a new great niece arriving in November. So I am adding to the Owl Family that I make for the Grandparents of the babies to hang in their home.
To Everything there is a Season was worked on for 3 days.
Give Thanks to God. I started on the white house. I am railroading my stitches trying to get the white to lay nicely.
Now that I am retired I get about 4-5 hours of stitching a day.
My plans for September. I will be participating in ABCINGO with the Magazine Monthly Facebook Group. I have put my small and medium wips on my board hoping to move some closer to a finish. We are also camping two different times in September so I might not get as much done on Dandelion Fairy Kingdom.
