LOOK OUT MAYNIA...HERE I COME!!

I just spent a very enjoyable few hours in the cube room studio organizing The Official Spinster Stitcher Stitch Maynia 2019 Basket and Toolkit O'Fun.

Here is the master tool kit. Notepad, Stewey birthday daisy needleminder, ort jar, highlighters, scissors, needles, and container of project names.

Two sets of q-snaps...8x8 and 11x11 complete the supplies:

Plum Pudding has its very own kit...q-snaps, grime guard, and project bag en route:

The plan so far is that I will sit down at 9pm each night to draw the name of the project for the next day for Monday through Friday stitching. To make it more spinster-friendly I added a few "free", "repeat", and "draw again" slips. The projects in the basket are all Spring/Summer/misc related, since I am a very seasonal stitcher and don't want to stitch Autumn/Winter/Christmas in May.

Once a project has been drawn, I'll put it on the q-snaps and stick it in the kit for the next day.

(Saturdays and Sundays will be reserved for Plum Pudding.)

So there you go, Dearies! We'll see how this goes...if successfully, I might try it again in August or September with autumnal projects. Augustania?

Happy Saturday!

  1. Well done, Coni! I am interested in the container you are using for the scissors, needles, ort container, etc. I think your plan is a good one and glad you are keeping it spinster friendly.

    1. The purple is from the amazons...I searched for pencil cases. The pink is from the Michael's scrapbooking section...$14 with a coopun!

  2. Sounds fun and looks good. But will you really put a different project on Q-snaps each day if that's what the draw says to do?

    1. Indeed I will, dear Susan! I discovered that an 11x11 works well for me with a grime guard. The 8x8 is for ones that are smaller.

  9. I too stitch by the seasons and your idea is pure magic! I am going to try this also as I think that it will add the variety I crave and I would finish more and love it more. Thank you for a great idea! Looking forward to seeing how this works for you!
