Stitcher's Block

Have you ever started a pattern that seemed like the best idea ever and then after what feels like a million years later you find yourself thinking you need to track down Dr. Who and go back in time and stop yourself from starting that thing?  Yeah...... that's where I'm at right now.

I've made big projects before and this isn't even big.  It is just fluffy.  I'm making a pattern called "Frilly Dress" and it really shouldn't be that big of a deal.  I think I'm just not into it and want to do anything else... like housework.  I'm really close to the end too but I just don't want to work on it anymore.  The only problem is the baby it is for is going to grow up.  I need to get it finished for her before her wedding day.

This is kinda like writers block... only I guess it's Stitcher's Block.

I have had this happen before but usually it is a color problem or I hate the yarn etc.  I have learned that I don't like mint green and every time I have ever started a pattern with yarn that color I ended up never finishing it or I start over with another color yarn.  This is lavender though and I love lavender!

So hopefully I can make it to the end of this thing.  I only have 2 and a half rounds left on the bottom of the skirt (which is like a lap around Texas) and the trim to do.

So close but soooooooo freakin' far away
