I think it is time to re-evaluate my projects at the moment. I seem to keep bouncing from one to the next and I will never finish anything that way. I am therefore going to try to cut down the projects I am working on to a smaller number. Usually when I do this the only thing I want to work on is the one thing I said I shouldn't and then all my plans collapse. So I think if I have a small number of diverse projects I should find something I like and might just manage a finish or two (hopefully).
So I am going to work on the following:
Bridge of Wings - HAED
QS Clara - HAED
Elegance of the Orient - Dimensions Gold
Majestic Peacock - Dimensions Gold (YOTA)
Mystery Project (Shhhh it's a secret)
Upcoming SAL - details to be released soon.
One mini project - MS Hedgehog
So I have cut out:
QS Literate Dragon - BB SAL
QS Fairy with Butterfly Mask - HAED
QS Oliana Otter - HAED
Aveyond (The Journey) - HAED
Celtic Spring - Lavender & Lace
Awakening - HAED (though I wasn't really working on it anyway)
A Mini project - Some Bunny to love (which I haven't posted here yet)
The plan: work on anything in the top list that takes my fancy, but only that list. Make no new starts (except the upcoming SAL) and once something is finished, a project from the second list will be moved up. The mini project one though will only be replaced by another mini project.
I really hope this will work and I will manage to finish some projects - though now all I can think of is how much I want to work on Celtic Spring :D

It's not.....really!
I know this looks bad. It LOOKS like I made a new start....recently. Well in fact I started this one a good few months ago (I know that doesn't make it better). I just did the first column on the first page to see how it looked, then I put it away.
Well if you have read my post on organising my threads on pieces of cardboard for each chart, you will know that it was very annoying trying to search for threads when I want to do something a bit smaller than Bridge of Wings. So before I came across the idea of using card strips for thread organisation I was in the mood to do a project I could fit on my small Q-Snap. This fits that description because I am doing it on 28ct and I have the bottom tucked into the frame. So I did a few half rows because it only uses a small number of colours as it is black and white and therefore I only had to dig out a limit number of bobbins, which suited me just fine.
However even though it has a small number of threads it has a lot of confetti, in fact it is pretty much entirely confetti.
Anyway the big reveal, here is my progress:
I'm not sure how much more I will work on this as I really should get back to my "real WIP's", this is how I justify working on this for a little while and then putting it down, it isn't really a WIP :P
Anyway, have a great day all :)
