and a project or 3

I have a problem.

I am addicted to projects.

Really.

Do they have "Intervention" for quilting and knitting?!?! I'm just kidding (and this is in no way meant to diminish people with true addictions - I've known too many to do that - just trying to bring a tiny bit of levity to my insanity).

I went to the library last weekend and limited myself to 2 knitting books. Of course, I found several projects I want to work on. I have to photocopy them, though, because I have enough projects going on right now.

I'm making a series of hats for my friend's boyfriend and his daughter. Apparently, the original hat I made for the boyfriend was abducted by the daughter - so he needs a new hat and she has requested another one herself. ;-)

I'm making the companion sock to that big-ass, boot-like sock I finished last week.

I'm also making quilted coaster. Ok, these are a quick-hit project and, thus far, fun. I need to do a tiny bit of hand-sewing and then machine quilt them. Expect a pic here by next weekend - that's my goal anyway.

I have that other sock working but I haven't done a damn thing on it in weeks.

I guess that's it for now. I am rumored to be commissioned to make a t-shirt quilt for a very good, old friend - but that rumor has existed for a year now and the t-shirts have yet to appear. ;-)

So hmm...maybe I do need to add a few more to my list. We'll see.

I wish I had more time to dedicate to these, I'd love nothing more than to open my own etsy.com site. There just aren't enough hours in the day or enough Pepsi Throwback to keep me awake long enough to built myself an inventory. At least not yet.
