Perhaps everyone does this, but I change over what crafts I work on depending on the temperature. Living in an area that has definite seasons, there are some things that get put away when it is too hot.
I hit the point on the baby blanket where I need to wait until I know if it will be for a boy or a girl in order to add a second color. That left me deciding what to pick up next. I need to make a push in January because I participate in a group blog called Thing-a-Day in February, and it has a way of side tracking any large projects.
I was torn between an embroidery project WiP and starting the hospice afghan. Both of these need to be done when it is not hot and humid In the end the embroidery won out. I keep picking this up and putting it down without doing any work on it. It’s time to make some progress on a WiP before I start a new project.
Great pattern and your embroidery stitches are beautiful.
The pattern was a real splurge back when I was still employed. It came from a company in England.
I was just wishing I had quilt at the stage of hand quilting–that’s a perfect cold weather craft since you need to sit under the quilt to do the quilting.
Yes! Exactly. I’m hoping to have a quilt at that stage by next fall. If I can get the top finished it will wait to be quilted for the cold weather.
Yes, I also change projects for the season. I made an afghan for my niece and it was nice and warm on my lap last winter.
It is nice to be able to snuggle under a project you are working on. 🙂
