WIPocalypse 2016

I began to seriously collect stash and have multiple WIP's from 2003. From about 2008 I stopped rotating through them all and some became UFO's. Then around 2012 I began to work on projects one at a time - nearly always new projects - and so everything became a UFO. From mid 2015 I have been stitching more and upon completing my most recent start - decided to work on a UFO rather than start something new!

The Plan 2016:

I'm still enjoying working on just one project and seeing it progress so fast. I am thinking about working on a second WIP one day a week for variety as I can't seem to pull myself away from Mirabilia's. There will be new starts but I hope to chip away at the UFO's. I am well on my way to knocking out two in 2016!

WIPs:
2014 Mirabilia - Persephone - waiting on beads
exhumed Oct 2015: 2009 Mirabilia - Touching the Autumn Sky - waiting on beads
exhumed Jan 2016: 2008 Mirabilia - Mermaids of the Deep Blue - current

UFO's
2004 Mirabilia - Royal Holiday - really can't stand fabric choice
2004 TW - Castle Sampler
2004 Chatelaine - Taj Mahal
2004 Chatelaine - Herb Garden
2004 Lavender and Lace - Angel of the Sea
2005 TW - Mermaid

2007 Mirabilia - Moonlit Lullaby
2007 Just Nan - Black Magic
2008 Just Nan - Bellemeade
2008 Indigo Rose - The True Love Sampler
2008 Drawn Thread - Random Thoughts
2008 M Designs - Sampler Girls
2008 Elizabeth Designs - A House of My Own
2008 LHN - The Rose in Morning
2013 Scarlett Letter - Dorothy Walpole
2014 Examplar Dames - Yellow House 

I'm not going to take them all out and iron and take photos - it's too big of a job. Some of these may never be completed it depends on their condition as I work through them.

Stash:
I have way too much stash. Charts, floss, fabric. Most of it bought haphazardly and not belonging to anything. I would really like to start using the fabric I already have in 2016.
