This past couple of days I've spent a lot of time thinking about stitching rather than doing it as, with one thing and another, I've been exhausted and not in a fit state to stitch without lots of frogging.
So I've decided that in 2007 I'm going to fight my addiction to the pc lol, and make a LOT more time to make progress with my stitching. Although I have a lot of new things I want to start, I need to make progress on my WIP's, so have decided to make my latch hook rug my focus piece for a while, stitching on it Mon-Fri, and then Sat and Sun I can stitch on whatever I want. I will carry this on until I either get really bored with the rug or until it's finished. Then I will decide on another focus piece and will do the same with that. The idea is that my focus piece will be a WIP I have already, so any new WIP's will only get worked on on a weekend. Hopefully that way I should make good progress with my ongoing WIP's in 2007, even finishing some lol, but still be able to have some new starts and have fun with those.
Now that I've decided this I'm quite excited about getting started so have already dug out the rug, and am aiming to do a bit tonight once DD is in bed. DH also starts nights on the 29th for 9 nights, so I should be able to make good progress then.
I've also been fighting the urge this past couple of days to buy more stash lol. I know, I never change. I keep thinking that I am going to try going on the wagon again until I finish a certain amount of projects or for a certain length of time, but then I think there is no way I can do it, and then I get cross with myself because I know I've already got enough stash to last me three lifetimes lol. What is it about this addiction?!
