Why do I?

Linking to WiP Wednesday because that is what I have - a whole LOAD of works in progress - and I've just added another!!!

Why do I do it?  Why do I start another project when I already have a list a mile long?  And it really is a mile long!  Instead of working on my 100 Day Hustle list, my Lazy Bum list and my 4th Quarter list, I started something new tonight.


At least I'm working on reducing my scrap pile!!! 

Scrappy Stash Quilt-Along at Ellison Lane Quilts 

P.S.  On Thursday I will be helping the lovely Annie of The Village Haberdashery at the Knit & Stitch Show at Alexander Palace on booth J22.  Pop along and say hello to us!! 

P.P.S.  Thank you to Espritpatch for my lovely Popular Patchwork magazine :)

Wow, you got a lot of scrappy stash blocks done! And there I was happy with my two ;) These are pretty and fun blocks, I can totally understand why you started another project!!

Mandy said...

They are terrific blocks! Well done for using up scraps! It's such a great feeling!

Kristy @ Quiet Play said...

Oh it's so hard to resist new projects, even if there is a mountain of others to work on! Nice work though using up scraps!

Di said...

It is lovely and a good way of using scraps. You are good at juggling so another project will be fine!!!!!

I love your scrappy blocks...They are fabulous!

I have several WIP and as I head towards the end of the year I know I'll start getting things finished. I seem to work in line with the seasons.. New projects for me seem to start in September and January and finishing seems to happen June/July and December. Weird eh?

I know why you do it! Cause the quilt you are working on is so darned cute! Our creative minds feed off this stuff. Keep your list current and do a little at a time. It's good for you! :-)

Tammy said...

I am just as bad for starting things and then pushing them down my list of priorities. Not just with my crafting - housework springs to mind too lol! I will be at Ally Pally Friday so will look out for you guys!

Sometimes you need a new project to gain motivation to finish the old ones =D
