 Wishing Everyone a Much, Much Better New Year! 

I decided to take 2021 by both hands and restart somethings. Like this blog which I see that I have not blog in since 2012. A lot has happened in the last 9 years.

One of the most bittersweet things that happen is that my Mother decided to end her life in August 2019. It is hard for me to call it suicide exactly, since she had made it as a plan. She had decide that when her body started to give out in her opinion, that she would end it. I was more upset by her selfishness, then I am sad about. It was another disappointment to me in a long line, through our relationship.

Enough said. On to what my plans are…

In the past years I have had a WIPP: Work-In-Progress Project for every month. 2021 is not going to be any different. Starting with January, WIPP is a Design by Heidi Hegel Neiling; Lace Tent from Happy Hooking Magazine #78 Outdoors Sept. 2020. I chose to do this as the first because, of the time it is going to take to do just one of these. It will probably take me more then a year to do just one.

The way I do my WIPPs is that each month I start a new rotation of projects. For example: Today, I will start by doing 1 row of a test stitch gauge of the pattern for the Lace Tent. Tomorrow, I will do 2 rows of the Lace Tent, and 1 row of December's WIPP (Which is pillows). On the 3rd it will be 3 rows of the tent, 2 rows of Pillow and 1 row of November's WIPP (Which is Fingerless/Texting Gloves), etc. To not get myself in a tease, I let go at a certain point in doing a certain amount every day. And just do it by rotation.

My Hopes for this Blog, Facebook Page, Etc.…

Is too at least beginning very month, I will blog about how my WIPPs are doing and what is the one for that month. I hope to do weekly updates on the Facebook Page. 

Here is too New Restarts and Adventures for the Year!
