HHHAAAA...HHHOOO...now that is a funny question!!!
I just filled orders from my last show and now have to put the machine aside to knit stuff for the next & last show of the year.........I can't start Christmas stuff until 2nd week of December after the last show, unless I get an order for something Christmasy in between........Boo Hoo!!!
261163On the same schedule as last year...not a thing even started! :-) As least I'm consistent!
35675Oh you just had to say the 'C' word, didn't you? LOL! I've got one quilt made and two more to go... that's all I'm doing.
7419Ideas are always going though my head for each occassion, but sometimes getting it done along with everything else???? I keep trying!
38558Got loads of stash material and supplies, cant seem to get going :) *
15256I've been working on Christmas projects for two months..... (big family) until I am about to the bah/humbug stage! LOL LOL
7672LOL not even thought of that yet. Have several things I want to make for grandkids but getting startd is the problem. Guess I'd best get to it before it sneaks up on me.
4077Now that I can sew again I've attempted to finish the ones I started back in May/June. Problem 1. I've run out of white felt. Problem 2. I've run out of 4" wadding. Problem 3. I've run out of purple and yellow ribbon. Problem 4. I can't find my heatproof wadding. So I'm back to 5 UFO's and I only got going 5 days ago. Such is life! GUess I'll need to shop.

255050I've been so swamped that I might be able to start thinking about Christmas in July...of next year. I usually agonize over what to do for Christmas, and then end up giving care packages and calling it merry. My crew likes that just fine, so there is probably no reason to stress over it. I do anyway.

I read a magazine article recently written by a gal who had good intentions. She finally photographed her intentions and put the pictures in a card. You know, the thought that counts. :) Getting out last years' projects are actually a good idea.

I'm great at starting something at then last minute and then having to give up because life interveins and so I just put it in the next year shelf

@ Emily - A plan is always a good place to start and than it gets lost, off track, etc. etc. LOL. @Justonlyme - A picture is worth a thousand words but suppose they hold me to everything that's on that picture...hmmmm LOL ;D *2U

I had WAY more time to do stuff when I was working. My "swamped" schedule came BECAUSE I retired. Go figure! At least when you are working, you schedule in a little bit of "fun". Everyone figures that you have nothing to do when you retire and then it starts hitting the fan. Good luck. :)

Retirement sure sounds good!!! LOL ;D *2U @Justonlyme more time when you were working...(hmmmm scratching my head), I still have less time, LOL ;D
5256I am doing the easy stuff. The fsl. As long as I hear my machine... I'm OK. I have sooo much sewing to do. I keep saying -tomorrow- when I have slept better... but then I don't sleep better. I was just telling H that there is snow in Minnesota. I guess I was wrong! christine Live Lauhg Download Stitch!

Send some of that nice warm to the west coast. We had a dud of a summer. Maybe three weeks above 70 if we use our imagination a little bit and turned on the heat a tad.
41781Yeah Right! I guess I'm the same as you I have ideas, but haven't actually done anything yet. Gonna be fun, we shift house in January, so I have to pack as well.

Shirlene it seems like you are on track, working all year long is not a bad idea... However; if I do as much as I think/plan, I would be an assembly line with mass productions...FIESTA ;D *2U
