Unfinished projects

From time to time I'll get motivated to undertake what at the time seems like a fun craft, like making something cool to wear, or a house decoration...here's how it goes 95 percent of the time: I get started with buying all the necessaries, excitedly tell friends what I'm planning to produce, and then delve into production, until...something (anything) else distracts me...permanently. That's why in my closet there's a bag of 4-5 knitted squares of a 30-square wool blanket, a set of 2 of the umpteen required crocheted strips of yarn for a lovely poncho, and why a collage I started of my husband's and my family's baby pictures hangs in the nursery with a big empty space in the middle, where our son's picture is supposed to be. Is it a concentration problem? Or do I pick the wrong projects? Maybe both...maybe these craft-sy undertakings just need to be small enough to satisfy my need for instant gratification.

So here's hoping that my new blog fares a little better...at least I can claim I finished one post! (very gratifying!)
