Default Finish two start one

Hi all,
I have made a pledge to finish two projects to start one. My progress so
far is a little Christmas ornament with an angel bear says I've been beary
good. and the mad bluebird. I stitched quite a bit at work the other day
on the mad bluebird and the ornie is my purse project. For those of you who
don't know, I am a dealer at a casino in Michigan and I get a 20 minute
break every hour. So I should get way more done than I do. lol I am a
habitual starter though, so I have to try to be good. For my next project I
am going to start is a flower from the newest Paula Vaughan From Paula's
Garden. The charts are very readable. I was pleasantly surprised, so this
is probably the first color chart I have worked from, but like I said the
chart is very large and readable. Also from what I can tell there isn't any
partial stitches for the colors to get lost behind backstitching. The flower
I am doing is the purple one, can't remember the name off the top of my
head. Is for a friend, purple is her favorite color and she is one of those
people who will do anything she can for you. Am planning on getting it done
for Christmas. So I gotta stitch away at the bluebird.

I like you idea. I decided to make this year the year of the UFO's. I've done
pretty good. Got 4 quilt tops done and a few cross stitch projects done. I
have 8 more cross stitch to do and I'll be caught up. I can not start one
untill 4 are done. I have started them years ago and since I now enjoy
evenweave better, I am having to force myself to finish the old ones. They are
to far along to give them away.
