Getting By With A Little Help Frome My Friends. (Long Post)

As I looked at the crafting area just now I realized I have WAY to many WIPs and something needs to be done about it. So I decided to dedicate September to getting my WIP pile (the one in the hamper under the table, not the bin in storage) finished. My goal is to ONLY sew items from the WIP pile this month until it is depleted. Unless, it is a swap item or a gift for an event that needs to get done ASAP. I took photos of the stacks of projects and will blog about them as I finish them. I am calling on all of you bloggers to keep me in line and accountable to sew ONLY these stated above. Though I am giving myself a little room to wiggle so I can get prepared for the Sewing Summit in October. AND I think to make it more reasonable for me, I can only sew ONE small project after I have finished THREE WIPs.
 
 Are you ready? There are the projects I need to finish:

1. Make a bag for the B&W bag swap. 2. Cut charms for i-spy, B&W swaps at the SS.

  1. Wow, that is a lot of WIP. Looks like a lot of them are quick projects so maybe you can whip them out easily enough.
