I must have been bored with that wedding doily before I finished it. I had to rip out another round. Those last few rounds take 2 to 4 hours to crochet, so it's a hard decision to make, ripping out that much work.
Oh well, it's finished now.
I've started another one. I need 3 more for family, but hopefully, I'll have several years' lead time. Knowing that if I only work on this project, I'll soon be bored and make mistakes causing me to rip out work, I think I'll also be working on other projects.
I have a grocery bag started using white bags with yellow and red writing. It's pretty, but I do have to stop and wait for more bags too often.
I also have a shoulder bag started using white bags with green writing. I've been working on it for over a year, because these bags come from a building supply store and I don't often get bags from there. Finally, I'm working on the flap of the bag, nearing the end. I only need 1 or 2 more bags to finish it!
It's baby blankets I should be making. There are now 5 married couples in my family who have not yet started their families.
I have 3 finished, which gives me some breathing space. However, I can't enjoy working on a project for myself knowing that I might have to put it aside to frantically make a baby blanket. If I just make a couple more, I'll feel ahead of them for a change. That'll be a nice feeling, instead of always playing catch up.
