I'm afraid I may have more unfinished projects than finished. What does this say about me? On one hand my unfinished work shows a wide array of interests - crochet, knitting, punch needle, needlepoint, cross stitch, quilting, drawing, sewing... On the other hand - they are all UNFINISHED! Yet if I walked into a yarn or fabric store (or visited ebay where I bought the most delicious Kaffe Fassett fat quarters this summer) I would be inspired to start something new.
I have made an agreement with myself to finish at least three projects before Christmas - I can't say what they all are incase they get finished and become gifts.
This is project number one. I started crocheting a simple blue blanket for Daniel when he was just a preschooler. Life must have gotten busy, and the unfinished blanket was put away and eventually forgotten. I unearthed it again a month or so ago while in the beginning stages of our basement redo. But I couldn't find the rest of the yarn. Stuck in the world of matchy-matchy I fixated on trying to find a blue that would go. A few attempts and much frustration and ripping out later I was ready to give up. Inspiration came while browsing some favorite crochet blogs, especially Little Woolie. I loved the multitude of colors and textures I saw. No more plain blue blanket for Daniel! Unfinished project number one is back under way and I am loving it!
