Now that we are nearly at the end of the first month of this year I am happy to say that I have STARTED completing or passing on some of the UFO's I found and was determined to deal with this year.
I decided that it was necessary to be ruthless and I needed to be truthful with myself when trying to sort out what was to be done with each of these projects. Not always easy, but very necessary.
So with a deep breath I plunged in. I started by sorting those that I would NOT for what ever reason complete and made the decision whether they would be best deconstructed (fabric / fibre was wanted) or passed on. I am very pleased that I have been able to pass onto friends or groups some of these projects and that they are happy to complete or reinvent them. I now have a very small number that are being deconstructed. I do this when I need a break and am happy to do something that needs less concentration.
My next step was to sort those items that require only a small amount to finish, these I am now in the process of completing.
It is a bit embarassing when you realise the extent of your UFO projects but as I am someone who has many textile interests it is probably NOT THAT surprising. Anyway the way forward is to just keep on working through these so that is what I am doing.
I hope to have some pics to add to my blog very soon. Anyway its back to the UFO's.
