I used to be a “one project at a time” kind of stitcher but lately I get sidetracked by other projects that I give out as presents so it’s always at least two at a time. Now it gets kind of difficult when I have a deadline for one but I also have to do it in secret… While living with that person and spending a good chunk of my free time hanging out with them! So for the past two weeks I ended up making…about 100 stitches in total 😅
Erm. Well I just looked around my immediate vicinity and there are 4 cross stitch projects, plus one crochet thing and two knitting within arm’s reach. Then there’s all my current sewing stuff, a mostly complete macrame wall hanging and other hibernating projects upstairs…erk.
Variety is the spice of life, and all that!
Oh, and I thought me having 4 yet to start, 2 active WIPs and 2 on hold was a lot 😂
One of my friends has been working hard to get her WIP count down this year. Think she was on 80-something!
We have a long way to go before it becomes a real problem 😄
I have four; two of them are ridiculously large and I’ve done less than 0.5% on each - but it’s the thought that counts, right?
The other two are much smaller but still quite large and I’ve been focusing on one of those a lot more, since it’s a gift that the person knows they’re getting.
@sortofblue @IoSapsai We need picsssssssss
I’m still very new to this hobby, so I’m still just doing one project at a time, but I do already have like 3 more projects lined up and I’ve considered starting one of them already
Usually two, that way I can procrastinate one project by working on the other. I like to sew and embroider my clothes also, but sometimes I cannot wait for the embroidery to wear it. The embroidery get’s done when the clothing is out of season.
I have like 5 projects currently but a couple of them are small and others are kits I picked up on vacation when I didn’t have my main project with me. I like to be 1-project-kind-of-person but sometimes I need a break and just do something simple.
My ‘main’ WIP is The Shire and it’s a bit advanced and hard to do while watching TV 😂
Oh wow that looks amazing. I’d buy it if I didn’t have about 4 patterns that I’ve yet to start 😅
Edit: Just looked at Viktoriya’s Etsy store and realized I’ve followed here and even have a finished piece from her!Looks like your link doesn’t work :(
I think her Etsy was closed, but Boosty and instagram works to buy her patterns. I have all the ‘snow globe’ ones and are slowly working my way through them.
OK it turns out I have no idea how Etsy works. I just googled her name in Latin letters, followed by Etsy, a bunch of patterns appeared, some of which in her style, and one of them was something I’ve bought. Sadly, it wasn’t her work. I saw she’s from Russia so maybe that’s why her Etsy is closed.
Yeah lots of Etsy shops just copy and steal patterns :( this is her IG https://instagram.com/viktoriyaivchenko
