I got a gorgeous beaded scissor fob from Karin in the mail yesterday. The really neat thing is she made the beautiful red and blue heart shaped bead herself. Thank you so much Karin!
I so appreciate all the great advice I got on goal setting from everyone. Karen and Chelle even posted their perspective on organization and setting goals on their blogs :-). I love to "think out loud" and getting so much feedback is wonderful. I am realizing I can be organized and accomplish a lot without being so wrapped up in my daily "to do" list. I've also decided Karen and I must have been separated at birth we are so much alike, LOL. The long and short of it is I am going to have some overall goals. I want to meet my timelines for exchanges and gifts, I love participating in exchanges and stitching gifts. I also want to finish some of my UFOs and I do like having a list of projects I want to work on over the long term. I am just not going to plan quite so much of my day in respect to what I am stitching. I want to leave room to change my mind :-). Speaking of which, the new BBD loose Feather is in my hot little hands and I am going to stitch it as soon as I finish a PIF and an exchange piece I am working on.

Oooo, Karin did make you a pretty fob! She is a whiz with those beads!
No, I wasn't born in Oxford ;) Glad that what I said was helpful and I look forward to seeing your forthcoming WIPs and finishes :)
Lovely fob from Karin too - she does beautiful beadwork!
Beautiful fob :)
Very pretty fob.
The beaded fob is fantastic. She makes her own beads! Wow.
Love the new fob, great gift!!
I enjoy your beautiful website and lovely cross stitched pieces very much. I wish you a very good day from France.
Beautiful Fob!
I enjoyed reading your post & having Chelle & Karen share their thoughts is quite the bonus!
Looking forward to seeing your new BBD project soon.
Love the fob. I can't wait to see your work on the new Blackbird Design!
Wow, that's a beautiful fob! Isn't the new Loose Feathers great?? Enjoy starting a new project, can't wait to see yours stitched up!
So glad you liked it - I was getting worried that it was swallowed by the postal system as it had been a couple of weeks and I hadn't heard anything.
Great fob. Sounds like you have made some good goals that will help you stay on schedule but not so strict that it will stifle you. It's all about having fun. Happy Stitching, CJ
