Well as you can see I'm great on those New starts, not so great on working on current wips and totally suck at finishes!
So this year I am more organised - I have narrowed my wips down to 60. (Don't laugh - it was really hard)
18 are Supersize charts
42 are from smalls to BAP's.
I am hoping for at least 3 - 5 finishes.
I've been asked by some stitcher's to reveal my rotation. So if you're interested here is my schedule, rotation and wip list.

As I stitch through the rotation I will be adding these to my wip tab seen at the top of the post.
18 SUPERSIZE BABIES - the list can be seen in the tab at the top of the post
My Stitching Schedule is as follows:
1) 💗 Main Rotation - Using a random number generator app to choose one of the wips from the list to work on or the one that screams the most
2) 💗 Supersized Baby - Same deal as with the Main rotation
3) 💗 XXL Guykou - Chosen focus piece for SS Babies for the year
4) 💗 HAED Bap - Same deal as with the Main rotation
5) 💗 Carnival Moon - Chosen focus piece for HAED BAPs
6) 💗 SS Guardian Angel - Overall focus piece as I really really really want to finish this one
7) 💗 Ghosts in the Forest - SAL with Sharine
8) 💗 Rose Zircon - Gift for my sis
9) 💗 Fuschia - SAL with Kelly
10) 💗 David Bowie Tribute chart - Alternate between my 2 Gecko Rouge Bowie charts. David Bowie by Sarah Bowerstock and, It's only forever by Medusa Dollmaker
11) 💗 Prince - Tilton Crafts - Gift for my BFF.
This schedule will be put into place in February or late January. As I'm participating in a new start thingy for January so going off schedule just for this month.
I have set the rule that I will have to stitch each category before the schedule starts again. I'm hoping this will keep me in line and also it's kind of loose so I won't get bored. As anyone that knows me, knows I have the attention spam of small amoeba. LOL! No offence to Amoeba.
Fingers crossed the 2017 year in stitches post will be alot better than this one.
Have a great year stunners, in stitches and in everything you do.
Wishing you all the very best for the year, may it be magical!!
And now for my other resolution. To keep up with blogs, I'm off to check out all of yours.
Love ya muchly
Take care
