So I finished 25 projects this year but only 3 of them were started before the start of 2013. I started the year with 36 WIP’s and 27 Items in the Fuppy pile. I’m ending the year with 33 WIP’s and 30 items in the Fuppy pile. So instead of having a lowered number of items on the total list, I’m still in the same boat. I think the key for the next year will be to get the FUPPY pile worked on.

Wrapping up the year…

And the rotation is looking good and close to final…
I think I have a cunning plan…. I have categories for my existing WIPS
1. Obligation/New Start – This is the slot for obligation stitching, figuring out how to restart the stalled WIPs, or a new piece if two have been completed. The first one is an obligation ornament I agreed to as part of a church service auction.
2. Fuppy – This is a slot for dealing with my Finished Unfinished Projects – making ornaments, bellpulls, framing or quilting
3. Teresa Wentzler – I have Six projects by designer Teresa Wentzler and at least 2 more of hers I would like to do that are fully kitted. So she deserves her own slot.
4. Not Cross-stitch – Needlepoint, Weaving, Blackwork, Embroidery, Crochet projects fit here.
5. Piecing – I have 3 projects that just need sashing (blocks completed) so guess where I’m starting.
6. Cross-stitch – All my other cross-stitch WIPs that are not TW
7. Screaming – This slot is for anything that is screaming at me when the time to fill it comes up.
Outside of the rotation
Travel Piece – this is for any small piece I can fit in my purse when I know that I have time to work on it.
You can see pictures of the list of WIPs on My Stitch from Stash 2014 page.

Refreshed and Revitalized
Just so you know, I took two days off work and just played. I watched movies, went to the zoo and saw the baby snow leopard. I finished one of the Stretch pillowcases I’ve been working on since 2000 when the pattern first came out and started working on the 2nd only to realize that blue grey linen was not the best choice of background to put the pattern on the pillowcase. I also set the stash room up with projects set so I could work on multiple things at the same time.
