Time flies...

...when you're having fun?   ...when you're procrastinating?  ...whether you like it or not?  Take you're pick.

I realized how fast time flies when I was hunting for a picture to use for this post. I went back to this day in 2011 and found these


I crocheted a bunch of these motifs with the intention of crocheting them all together to make a table runner. Me being me, I lost interest and moved on to something else leaving all of them in a basket that got buried in the craft room. Just a couple weeks ago I found them again and thought they might make a good backing for the felt roses I made recently. So they may actually have a purpose now. Unless of course I lose interest again and yet another plan falls short of completion. Maybe after 6 years of sitting around waiting to be used they should either go into a project or go to someone who might use them.

They are very pretty, and would make nice mug coasters.

They are really pretty! I know you will find a great use for them in one of your projects.

Those are pretty Ann! m Boy can I relate to your "procrastination"...or moving on to another craft before the first one is done! Ha! I think all of us crafters have a whole stash of stuff we don't even know we have!! I have an entire room full and I am positive that there are many things in there that I could use...if I just had the time to go through them! Enjoy your weekend!!

They are so pretty, but I know what you mean, I have a box full of bits of crochet and nothing to do with them. Bit like my paws, lol

I agree with Ginny, the 3 together would make a nice mug coaster. I am the opposite, if I start something I am not happy until it is done, of if like the coloring book I bought a few months ago, it was put away until I find someone to give it to. I am always ahead of time, almost always I have 7 to 10 posts in my drafts waiting for words. or the right time. the only thing I procrastinate on is making the call for a doc appt.

No pressure at your house. If you want to do something you do, if you don't you don't. I like that approach.

Have a fabulous day. Tomorrow is your day off. Excellent. Big hug to you and tons of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥

If they are light in weight, I think with the felt roses they would make lovely pins - I have something along those lines on one of my winter hats...

I can't believe you let them go. Sorted through a refrig out at the lake and found some relics from the past in just condiments left behind.Refridgerator mottifs LOL

Six years? Glad they finally have a purpose!

I think I may have you beat in the procrasting project as I have a half finished "latch hook" rug I started the year I got married...25 years ago this month that is still in my closet.
