I have survived my first two days of work at my new job. Yesterday was really tough and no one really knew what to do with me. My position is brand new to the company and they are still working on the transition. Today was much better as they gave me a project to work on and I had some very good conversations about expectations.
I did manage to finish another four pieces over the weekend, three of which are the same pattern stitched in different shades of yellow (445, 745 and 3078). I still have one more to stitch in DMC 104 which will be completed in May. These will be part of a quilt made by World of Charity Stitching.
And I ended up with another graduation card, for my cousin's daughter. I tried something different with the tassel (I actually made a tassel) and will continue this for future graduation cards.
My year to date wrap up is as follows
- 108 finishes out of 120 starts
- 25 of the finishes are UFOs from 2016
- 24 of the finishes are UFOs from 2017
- 59 of the finishes are starts from this year
I expect my finishes will slow down, but I am very proud of the progress I made so far, especially finishing so many UFOs!
Happy Spring!
Michele
Your numbers are amazing Michele. How many WIP's/UFO's do you still have?

Thanks Linda, I do not have as many as I thought I had. 13 UFOs from 2015, 36 from 2016, 18 from 2017 and 22 from this year, for a total of 89. There are about 8 pieces that I started in one year and worked on in others, but I only counted those in the original year I started them. And of course, I have more starts for this year and I have a lot of cards yet to make.
