It is raining, the cats are sleeping, I'm drinking coffee. Seems like a normal Monday around my house.
I am attempting to clean up some of the WIPs/UFOs that are cluttering up my house and work room. They have, again, gotten out of control.
I started a Stained Glass afghan using scraps from the never ending acrylic supply. It looks to be about 1/3 done. I have several good size scrap balls made so I'm trying to focus on getting it done. It is working up quickly.
I'm hoping if I focus on one project and get it as far as I can I will at least make some happy progress and have new things to wear and use. And fewer things giving me baleful looks about being neglected. I'm not sure if I have enough scraps gathered to finish this yet. Like the Primrose Path afghan, I've sewn all the finished blocks together but I need to make more. The Stained Glass pattern tells you how many ounces are needed but that would require that I made some effort to keep track of how much I've already used.
I also found this really beautiful afghan I want to make. I think I have enough in the 'stash' to finish it. Of course the list of things I want to make is HUGE. I have found 8 new afghans to make just since Christmas. In no particular order: Rose of Avalon, Lotus Moon, Cognac Matelasse, Flower Fountain, Geek-A-Long (there are 4 of these 2014 - 2017), Lily Pond, Retro Ornament, and Demelza. (sorry for all the Ravelry links, some the public can see, some they can't. I never know which).
So many ideas, so little time.
