If you do what you love, the money will follow...right?

Little pillows, etc.

Haven't really been up to much so far this year,
except buying fabric for imaginary future projects (or
projected projects? ): some left over christmas holiday gifts
which are becoming birthday gifts and a quilt for my sister.

A lot of fabric...see photos

-sigh-

So far, in 2009, I've worked on:
  • little pillows for my daughters "comfy" chairs
    (so far this is the only finished thing!!)
  • 9-patch brown/pink quilt (for my niece's 10th birthday)
  • finally quilting my "sunshine happiness quilt"
  • emergency GUYS for kids birthdays - both upcoming and past
  • and some lovey/doll quilt size work
I hope to finish something soon and to photograph it and blog about it.
LOL!

I don't seem to be using my creative time very wisely these days... BOO!

Hubris...

I knew that I had a lot of stuff for knitting. You know, needles and hooks, yarn and projects. Well, today I started the long road to stash-a-holic recovery...

I entered all of my needles and hooks into my Ravelry notebook. At least, the ones that aren't part of a set. There are more than 100 of them! (Plus, I've got one Denise from sz 5 to 13 and one Knitpicks set from sz 4 to 11). Woah...

I also entered every single project that is on needles (or cables)...every one I say. Including the ones that I finished in December (so I could feel better about all the hibernated projects that I haven't worked on in months or years). That number is just over 50, but almost half are done. 25 ongoing projects--that's not too awful, is it?

I'm scared to inventory the actual yarn. It's going to be ugly.

My name is Rachel and I'm a fiber-holic.
