WIP Pile and Stats

 This WIP Pile and Stats page is 100% inspired by Melissa at Musings of a Geeky Witch. Please check out her stats page on her blog at: Stitching Stats (measi.net)

I want to use this page as a working record of my WIP Pile and stitching stats and hope to update it every month or so. 

With a high level of projects on the go I needed a way to simplify my wip pile and reduce overwhelm.  I came up with the idea of splitting the pile into two smaller lists and just focus on one.

Projects worked on this year are highlighted in Green. I’m thinking of resetting the highlights on January 1st.

I started 2023 with 55 WIPS and managed to finish 2 projects so far, however I still found my pile intimidating so I abandoned a few WIPs and de-WIPped projects that had less than a 100 stitches and returned them to my stash. I now have 48 WIPs in total, aiming for another by end of December 2023  

STATS SUMMARY for 2024:
Start of Year Wips: 48
Not Priority Wips: 23
Completions: 0
Projects Worked on: 0
New Starts:0
Re-Stashed:0
Abandoned:0
End of Year WIPs: 0

WIPocalypse Check In January 2024

This month has been rather productive and it surprised me, especially since a I’ve a busy home life. 🤱🏻 This month I stitched a total of 2,741 stitches over the 5 WIPs I had picked out for January: January WIPS WIPgo block 9 - Gangster 630 stitches completed whilst playing the Myths and Magic Wars for round 3, and first level for the Alux creature in Magical StItches. Not a page finish yet but I’m hoping Marilyn will come up again on the Full Coverage Wheel soon in order to get the rest of the stitches done before the end of the year. WIPgo block 22 - Kelly Eden Kelly Eden is my success story for January. 1104 stitches done and I hit my page finish goal for this wip. Awesomeness!!! This wip was part of the Muth and Magic Wars and completed 2nd level for the Alux creature.  I thoroughly enjoyed stitching on this one and can’t wait to stitch on it again.  I Dare You Sal WIP - Quilted Heels This is my ongoing IDY Sal project that I will have each month until it is finished.

2024 Stitching Plans

I hope everyone is ready for the Christmas holidays and have some quality time to spend with the family and friends xx I have been spending a lot of time thinking about how I’m to tackle my stitching in 2024. I’m going to roughly do the same as last year: 4 New Starts Allowed: 1 per quarter. Birthday New Start will be in 1st quarter if I decide to have a new start.  Each wip to have 500 stitches put into it before moving onto the next wip. Each wip must be worked at least twice during 2024.  (this is due to WIPgo and Magical Stitches Yearly Challenge). Focus to finish months June & December: wips that have been called by WIPgo are eligible for Focus to Finish month.  Aim to finish 6 WIPs in 2024. Aim to work on 3-4 WIPs a month So with these guidelines in mind (all of which are stolen from my friend Sabea - if it works for her I’m sure it’ll work for me 👍🏻) all I needed to do was find some stitching groups and games on Facebook to help me get the stitches in and sta...

January 2024 Stitching Plans

🎇🥳HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE 🥳🎇 I hope everyone had a great time over Christmas and is ready for 2024. I’m pretty sure I have already bitten off more than I can chew but that is usual for me. I fantasise about all the things I want to do without having any thought of it being realistic. Dream Big or Go Home…. Isn’t that the saying? 😂😂 So read on if you want to see what I wish to be working on this month 🧞🧞‍♀️🧞‍♂️ Each month I am hoping to work on 3-4 WIPs. WIPgo and I Dare You SAL will determine what I will work on each month and if by a miracle, I have enough time to fit in another WIP I have created the Wheel of Full Coverage WIPS to decide on the 4th project. WIPgo  The numbers called for January are: 9 - Gangster Marilyn   22 - Kelly Eden I Dare You SAL Sarah called the order for the SAL and the first WIP is: 2 - Quilted Heels  I will be working on this wip each month until it is completed. hopefully it won't take me too long.  Backstitching part is not thr...
