Decisions

So Many Projects. So Little Time

Do you start with the yarn?

decisions-2

Do you look through your stash of magazines and patterns?

decisions-3

Do you just start swatching and playing with colors?

I’ve done all of the above when deciding on what to make with which materials.

I’m sort of particular when choosing projects.  I mean, there’s only so much time in a day and so many days in our lives — I’d rather spend time making something heirloom worthy than making crap.

OMG!  I’m a project snob, aren’t I???!!!

Rest asured I’ve made my share of potholders and doilies. Yes, yes I have. And I love them.  But I want a piece (or two) to be oooh and aaaah over in a museum in 100 years when I’m long gone.  That’s very weird, isn’t it?
