Who Needs A Rotation!

I don't know why I bothered making a stitching rotation if I'm not going to go by it. I don't like being tied down to such a schedule. I'm a moody stitcher. I just might not want to stitch on the gingerbread houses on Thursday. I thought it would help me finish started projects and not get side-tracked on something new and exciting. No such luck. Especially smaller quick projects. I really like to finish what I start before moving on, so this business of having several projects going at once is new for me. But I do like having choices for my moods.

This is also a "firsts" update. This weekend I designed my first piece, stitched it and then made it into a biscornu fob. My first biscornu and my first fob. Thought I would just knock it out all at once. It really came out of neccessity. I needed a pincushion. And I couldn't find a freebie design the size I wanted , so I just designed it myself. I think it turned out really cute. I used some of the floss my friend Jennifer gave me for Christmas and some Silkweaver fabric. I still have to put the cord on. I plan to attach a string of beads and lobster clasp to attach to the scissors. I had to run to Michaels last night for a bead emergency. I'm not sure what I'll do with this one. I thought about giving it to my friend for her birthday coming up, but I don't know. I want to make some more.

I have stitched quite a bit since my last post, but they are all big projects so no finishes except the fob. Here are some progress pics.

I got really frustrated with the gingerbread houses. I messed up big time and didn't realize it until much later. I have to rip quite a bit out, so I just put it aside for several days. I'm so close to finishing though.

Thanks for stopping by and for the comments I have recieved. Love it.

Have a great day!!
