Stitching Statistics
21 September 2006
It has been crazy couple of weeks for me, but things are slowly settling into something of a routine. I haven’t been stitching as much as I would like and I keep forgetting about the SBQ, but I finally remembered this morning, so here it is.
This week’s SBQ was suggested by Elisabeth and is:
How many pieces have you stitched? Out of these, how many have been for you? How many have had specialty stitches or other techniques besides cross stitch?
Well, I am not exactly sure how many pieces I have stitched, especially if I count round robins and exchanges, but these days it is probably well over 100 and quickly approaching 200.
If I don’t count robins and exchanges, I would guess that probably around 90% of the things that I have stitched have been for me. Before I got involved in robins and exchanges I considered myself a pretty selfish stitcher and very seldom stitched things for other people. Obviously once I got involved in robins and exchanges that changed and now there is always something in my rotation that doesn’t belong to me.
I recently started experimenting with specialty stitches, so right now I haven’t stitched a lot of pieces that have them. However, I have had a wonderful time trying them out so I would imagine that in the future more and more of my pieces will have them. ![]()
