Sick at home and shaming myself into finishing or giving up on the giant piles of UFOs.
For your amusement, and sheer terror, may I present:
the 2015 "I'm gonna's"
 |
| mendables, remodelables, rendered into useful scraps |
I could describe it all, but it does fall into some tropes: things I love that I just can't give up on (sweaters with holes), projects that were interrupted for jobs, and worst of all: fabric I love made into wadders that I think I should be able to rescue.

| what I had, what I scrapped, what I'll work on this year |
The worst of these is that blue green scrap in the center. It's a failed Spoonflower kona print that we will talk about some other time. I picked out what I knew I wanted to have, and dumped the rest.
yarn, yarn, ribbon: peewee? Saving the ribbon and the PeeWee trading sets. Selling off or donating the yarn. I can't knit for any length of time anymore; it's pretty, but it shames me.

| Raincoat pattern under way ; where? |
Granted, I've been sick (this year's flu is a nasty customer), I've been working on two or three projects at the same time, and there's that rick rack thing. So I haven't done the big clean between projects, at least I kept the space around the machine tidy.
But this is maximum chaos, even for clutter lovin' me.

| how does she work in here? |
It's an utter mystery.
Stash-shaming! Let's do a telethon! I'm sewing in a small space so everything's stuffed in closets. I keep thinking if I just keep doing projects, my stash will get out of the way of my tools and the cute stuff I got at the Container Store.
ReplyDeleteIn the back of my room, there is a closet that is full of cute storage solutions (sticks fingers in ears and hums to distract herself).
