2010: The Year of ....

Yikes, this poor little blog. No attention at all after setting it up. I doubt I will post often, but I do want to keep track this year of my projects. You see, this year is:

The Year of the UFO (unfinished projects)*
The Year of the Stocking**

*While unpacking I found a slew (small mountain) of projects that I started and for various reasons, put aside and never finished. As I have time I am going to go through them and decide - do I really want to do each one. Then, with the ones I want to: re-kit and put them in to-stitch order.

**I have quite the collection of Shepherd's Bush stockings. I even know which ones I want to stitch for each of us. They look fun, quick and beautiful (and will look *amazing* hanging on the new mantel next Christmas), I just have to get off my behind and start them!

My Stitching Goals for 2010: (in no particular order)

Stockings for Jeff, Emi and me - I should be able to get three done in a year!
Finish at least five UFO's
Finish the Wedding Gift (that is first first first on the list)
Set up my sewing/stitching storage room
Try not to start any new projects until both gifts are done, one stocking is in the works and maybe another UFO is done (we'll see ... this is a hard one - I love new projects and there are SO many new and awesome charts coming out right now)

Welcome to my little stitching area. This hobby has become a passion. I wake up in the morning thinking about it, race around the house doing my 'chores' so that I can have more time to stitch. Push off all errands on to one day, so that I can stay home the other days and stitch stitch stitch. I wonder if there is a 12-step program, but that would require I want help and ... I don't!

Flickr.com is the on-line photo sharing site I use for my stitching. I am pretty happy with it, it could be easier to use. I like PictureTrail better for ease of use, but Flickr is cheaper.

Here is the link to my stitching photos. My current plan is to post (with photos!) my rotation. May take some time to get everything that is in my rotation up here, but I will start soon!
