WIPocalypse 2015 - July Edition Part Two

As I mentioned in my last WIPocalypse post, we get two full moons in July this year, so we get two WIPocalypse reports as well! Yay!

For the second report in July, Measi asked us the following question:

What makes you pick up a long-abandoned UFO rather than beginning a new piece?

Let's be honest here - anyone who follows this blog knows I'm a serial starter. I wouldn't have as many WIPs as I do if I wasn't. That being said, I find that having my daily rotation helps make it so that no project falls completely by the wayside. It may take me longer to finish a project, but I know I'll get back to it eventually in the rotation, even if I start other new projects along the way! I don't believe there is such a thing as too many WIPs. There just aren't enough hours in the day to do all the stitching I want to do!

Here are the nitty gritty details for my second WIPocalypse Report for July 2015

Total Number of Pieces for WIPocalypse for 2015: 63
Number of Pieces Completed This Month: 2
Total Number of Pieces Completed This Year: 6
Number of Pieces Worked on This Month: 29

And now, here come the pictures! Because of the sheer volume of WIP's I've got going now, I'm only going to show the pictures of the pieces I actually worked on this month.

  1. Wow so many HAED, how do you manage to stitch on all of them. I haven't had the courage to start the patterns I bought. I love jeweled pumpkin.

  2. Wonderful progress on all these pieces, Katy :-) Congrats on the finishes. So glad your rotation works for you; I've thought about trying yours as I have a lot of WIPs, too, and some never see the light of day.

  8. Jeweled Apple is GORGEOUS! I also love Rapunzel and the fabric you picked out for her. All your stitching is amazing but those are the two that caught my attention the most.

  14. I think my mind would explode if I knew that I had that many WIPs at once. I used to work on only one project until it was finished, but I am a little less rigid now. All of your projects are beautiful.
