To Do List

It's been a while since I updated my To Do list.
Now it's grown so long that I'm really at lost of which to do first.

Anyway, I've

1. Finished sewing the 5 name hangings
2. Finished the scarf my aunt asked from me (photos to follow)
3. Made another wrist pillow for my bf (photos to follow)
4. Canceled the cross stitch project (the glue is a bad idea)
5. Made a few more stuff to sell
   

And I still have to:

1. Finish another batch of commission
2. Finish bear name hangings
3. Make turtle keychains
4. Get big button to match scarflet
   
5. Crochet more gajih flowers
6. Get a dark blue zipper for cell phone pouch
   
7. Start cutting fabrics
8. Make printer covers
9. Make even more stuff to sell

(Some of these items, I got a feeling they won't get crossed out for a long long time, if ever.)

To Do List

A bit of update from the previous one.

1. Finish sewing name hangings
   
2. Finish scarf
3. Finish sewing cross stitch
4. Finish bear name hangings
5. Make turtle keychain
6. Make another wrist pillow
7. Get big button to match scarflet
   
8. Crochet more gajih flowers
   
9. Start cutting fabrics
10. Knit something
11. Make more items to sell (obviously, duh!!)
    

Hmm, I think I know why fabrics scare me. Thing is, when you cut a fabric, that's it, it can't be undone. But when you knit or crochet, and in the end you decided you don't like it, you can easily unravel the whole thing and reuse the yarn for something else.

It's Raining!

Yesterday my A/C was repaired. At last.. I can sleep well. Yay!!
And it's been raining on and off since this morning, so the air is nice and cool.



Even better, I manage to cross out a few things from my To Do List.

1. I finished sewing on the zipper for the pencil case my cousin commissioned from me.
2. I finished stuffing and closing the wrist pillow for my bf.
3. I've checked my yarn stash and got back to my wrist protector buyer.
4. I've cut the cross stitch fabric.
   
5. I've received payment for my next commission of name hangings and will start cutting up patterns today.

And a few to add to my list:

1. Get the courage to cut up my fabric collections.
2. Make printer dust cover from the fabric.

To Do List

Okay, as a way to prevent myself from procrastinating, I've decided to post about the list of things I'm supposed to make/finish. Making it public supposedly will put more pressure on me to finish them faster.
Anyway, Finish faster = more items finished = more income. And I so really need them. My cashflow has been negative ever since I was out of that office job.

So here's my current one. Watch me as I cross them out one by one. Photos might not follow rather closely though. Sometimes I don't immediately photo them cos I prefer do it in a batch.

1. Finish bear name hangings (currently really sick of sewing another bear)
   
2. Finish sewing the zipper to the pencil case
   
3. Finish scarf (how come that ball never seem to grow smaller?)
   
4. Finish gift for bf
5. Make turtle keychain
6. Start making name hangings commissions once I got paid
7. Confirm colours for wrist protector commission (check what colours I have)
   
8. Cut the cross stitch fabric to make this particular pattern I've been thinking about for a long time
9. Edit and upload photos of part time job friends and my cousin's wedding
10. Take good photo of that first finished item of 2009, edit n upload it
11. Delay reading Brisingr because I know once I picked it up I won't be able to put it down until it's finished.
    

I know, all this while I've been quite secretive, only showing finished off items without saying much about how they're done. I still won't be writing about my list of ideas though, they'll still stay in my head until they've been carried out. But from now on, I'll try to share with you more of my work processes. I realize that a blog showing only pictures of finished stuff are boring, and I do notice that the blogs that share will have more traffic and readers.
So yeah, I should be taking more pictures from now on.
(NO, that's not a new year resolution. Cos it won't last if it is. ;p )
