Milestone achieved.
I am now officially halfway done with Train of Dreams. I am hoping to finish by the end of this year or at the latest early next year. It is really fun to stitch on.

Good Grief
It is a beautiful, cool, sunny day here in New England. My favorite time of year. Due to a query on a Yahoo Group (Friendly (Enablers) Stitchers I took some pictures of my craft room. I have been stitching for over 30 years and I have been collecting stash for that long also. We were supposed to count how many charts, kits etc that we have either on the go, kitted up or waiting in line. I would be counting for years so I opted to take some pictures.
When I first started stitching I stitched a variety of things but in 2008 I discovered HAED and well everything else instantly became a UFO. I also later discovered Tilton Crafts and PaineFree and the addiction grew. I know that I have over 100 HAED charts and at least 5 or 6 each f Tilton and PaineFree. Oh and I forgot. I also discovered Mystic Stitch- 16 or 17 of those also.
I have 20+ HAED's, 4 Mystic Stitch, 2 Tilton and 1 PaineFree started. Another 20 or so HAED's kitted and am working on getting fabric for more. I am a stitcher & I am addicted. I also do not want a cure. I am happy as I am.
These are the pictures I took of my craft room today. Please excuse the mess. I am in the process of sorting things out but with no AC in that room not a lot gets done in the summer.
The stack of boxes are all WIPs that are in progress as are some of the bags. I am still buying boxes to try & keep them all organized. Each box contains the chart, floss, fabric, q snaps and magnet board for the project.
Well now that I have confessed I will go back to stitching on my current WIP which has had ahold of me since the end of May and I don't see it letting go anytime soon.
