Example 1: My craft room. Earlier this week it looked like this.
I must say it looks A LOT better. I have thrown out so much stuff but you see something happened while I was cleaning out. I found some other unfinished projects.
Like this........
Example 2: Unfinished crafts that are completely forgotten.
A baby blanket I was working on. I knit a lot of little squares and well that gets old after awhile. So I set it down (for just a moment) to start a new project. I will get to this one eventually. Hopefully they still sell that yarn - haven't even checked yet.
Which leads me to....
Example 3: The hoarding of yarn for more projects started and forgotten but mostly just forgotten. My head gets a little bigger than my hands sometimes. And I am an impulsive shopper. We are working through this quite successfully. Starting with the yarn.
I am embarrassed to show you all my yarn. So here is a snippet. Oh crap another unfinished project managed to sneak into this photo. Pretend you don't see that baby hat still on the needles - thank you much!
New goal - I refuse to buy new yarn until this collection is more than halfway used up (or given away) but I prefer used up. I like this yarn - this is quite and investment of yarn.
Well I wish I could share more of my unfinished projects but I just can't take pictures of it all. If I did, you may see loads of scrapbooks and photos. Shelves of fabric.
Oh and most horrifying of all - a GIANT blanket I am making for my sister's bed completely covering my entire floor. I am still in the pinning mode (tedious) but then I was suddenly in the mood for making flowers for some headbands. I just finished 3 headbands for myself - I will share them soon. I LOVE them. They are unique from what most crafty gals (such as yourselves) are making but I like them.
What about you - any confessions?

I have a blanket, also with little squares, that I started years ago. One day I will want to finish it. But I will have to use different yarn because I ran out of gray.
