Lee, the Lake Stitcher, has reincarnated the Stitching Bloggers Question. I'm so very excited. This is a terrific way to find new-to-me stitching bloggers. She's doing it as a monthly, rather than weekly, enterprise.
Her first question is Which kind of stitcher are you: a process stitcher or a project stitcher? Does this carry over into other parts of your life?
As Lee wisely points out, most stitchers are somewhere in the middle, which is definitely true for me. To pick one, though, I'd say I'm more of a project stitcher. I stitch a lot of gifts, so there are often timelines involved. I also fret (lightly) when something has been sitting in my work bag for a long time. I do get really excited when I finish a project.
When I first started stitching, it was all about the project. As I've become an experienced stitcher, I've learned to relax a bit and focus on enjoying the process of stitching. I particularly like projects in which I learn new stitch techniques.
I'm like this in the rest of my life too. I tend to focus on the end goal and not as much on the process. Again, as I've gotten more experienced, I try to remember that life is about the journey. Getting pregnant and having my daughters has really helped in this area of my life.
