Square Eyes

One of my most annoying habits is having several creative projects on the go at the same time. This isn't because I'm a glutton for punishment but because I tend to start something quite monumental and then after a while it really starts to get on my tits so I make a start on something else to sooth my soul and calm my nerves and so the cycle begins and my UFO (unfinished objects) pile gets bigger and Bigger and BIGGER!. I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to crocheting granny blankets as I go all 'gung ho' at doing the squares and then I'm left with a pile of squares that need the wool ends sewing in - a job I loath. This is why I'm now in a panic to finish a blanket for Christmas. It could be worse, I only have 30 squares to tidy up - that's 12 ends of wool to sew in per square (urgh) so I'm doing 6 at a time and then sewing squares together to form the finished pattern then back to sewing in for a bit. Can't someone invent a machine that does the crap, nasty bits so I can just get on with being creative?!

  2. I must admit I was mortified when my friend said she only wanted black, grey and white but it's grown on me
