Yes, THEY are talented, Martha.

But I am happy to announce that I did, indeed, start and finish a couple of Christmas gifts after this post ... Over Christmas, I found out that my cousin is pregnant, so I've been working on that baby blanket to give to her. There MIGHT be hope for me! :-D

omg you guys are so frickin' talented it's...

omg you guys are so frickin' talented it's ridiculous!

You, my dear Leigh, are a "finisher," so I am not buying the story about the state of your room. LOL Perhaps you are a little delayed with completing the Christmas room box (what is that, btw?), but I know you'll get it done in time for Christmas!

And thank you for giving me another good reason to come to Iowa. I think we're now at 1,098. :-) I'm sold!

Rachael, after looking at all those beautiful sweaters you make, I can't believe you have a box full of half-done projects!

Oh, good, Gigi. It's wonderful to meet a kindred spirit. What would we do without deadlines?!

All this talk about projects has made me want to go start something ...

Oh, you're definitely a kindred spirit, Rachel...

Oh, you're definitely a kindred spirit, Rachelle -- without a deadline, it's not getting finished in my life ;)

Oh, yeah.... I have whole boxes filled with half-d...

Oh, yeah.... I have whole boxes filled with half-done projects. Why does it feel so good to start? I'd like to throw all of them away someday and get a clean start (wonder if I ever will?).

:)

Hey, I can help with one of those projects -- I ca...

Hey, I can help with one of those projects -- I can teach you how to cast off that scarf, and in fifteen minutes you'll be finished. ANOTHER great reason to plan a trip to Iowa next spring!

... Just don't ask to look at my craft room while you're here. It was bad enough before I stacked up the boxes of books to make another workbench, so I could build the Christmas room box -- which of course isn't finished yet though Christmas is next week... :-)

Juliet, I LOVE that positive spin! I'm going to call myself that instead of a starter! :)

Sophie, let's add granny squares to our Board meeting agenda. :) thanks for the compliment. Lois Tema took that photo, too.

Oh Rachelle, I LOVE the granny squares. I'll c...

Oh Rachelle, I LOVE the granny squares. I'll crochet and idle away the hours with you any time! And PS love the new photo, GORGEOUS~

Oh yes, this rings a bell with me! I'm a kind...

Oh yes, this rings a bell with me! I'm a kindred soul -- great at starting things...maybe not so much for finishing them. I like to think of Our Kind as eternal optimists..."one day" is a staple of my vocabulary!
Thanks for stopping by with the Pens!
