Yep that's it. 10 finishes. Didn't work on very many projects at all. Guess what though....that's okay. I have so many amazing memories from 2021.

Now 2022 plans are going to be careful. I want to STITCH again. So I might stitch on this. I might stitch on that. But I will sure be trying to STITCH. No monthly piece. I would love to finish the ones I didn't finish yet from 2020 and 2021. If not that's okay. I just want to stitch.

I should do this, too. Mine might look a lot like yours though and it seems like too much trouble.

Good luck with doing a lot more stitching in 2022. Sometimes, not making plans is a good thing.

Rachel said...

Let's turn that around - 262 days of not stitching means there were 103 where you DID stitch, and 10 finishes in 103 days, plus progress on WIPs, is pretty good going I think. Agree? :)

Good for you for not planning anything specific in 2022 - no commitments, no stress, just go with the flow and see what happens. Maybe the boys could help by making you a cuppa and ensuring you to put your feet up and stitch for at least 15 minutes each day?

I like Rachel's attitude and you got some lovely finishes too. I stitched every day and only got 34 finishes!
It's having fun with your hobby that really counts. And doing my Blog Hops, obviously!

Ten projects is better than none, right Katie? Stitching is not about how many things we finish--just about enjoying the journey :) Happy New Year! ♥

Katie and Family Happy New Year, you did a load of stitching in 2021.

Happy New year

There is never a sad stitching recap! If you got to stitch any days at all that is a good thing! Though from the looks of it you were very productive during the time you did stitch! Family life and making memories are more important than stitching any way!

Even though I stitched every day last year, I'm not sure I finished as many as you!
You have plenty of lovely patterns to stitch, so maybe this will be a busy year for you. Stitch what makes you happy!

No shame, you stitched when you had time, and still had some major finishes (99 bottles) with all that. Enjoy 2022!
