Day 9... Stress may be setting in...

   Oy vey, its been a long day... I got the last of the Mushroom bags painted. This means I now have 10 bags, four hats an two cat tails ready to sell for MAGFest. Tomorrow I'll be going back to my parents' house so my mom can help me paint and put together the Loot bags. I'm really starting to feel the pressure now, there are only five days left till the start of MAGFest. I feel like there's a lot left to do, however most of what needs to be done is the building process for the ears & tails, and the lacings on the hats. Speaking of ears, while making them today I realized that when I put the white ears together that I made 16 left ears instead of 8 left and 8 right :-( Luckily I realized this after making two sets of the calico ears, which I already fixed and completed the gray and calico ears in the proper left and right combos. Now I'm going to have to find time to fix the white ears... Here's hoping I can get past the stressful feelings and finish everything in time. Next year I'll make sure to make a schedule to stagger and finish all the product in a decent amount of time, instead of allowing myself only two weeks to finish.

  1. I felt the same way this year with Christmas presents. I was crocheting up to the very last minute. That's why I've decided 2013 is going to be a year of "Maximum Creativity" where I alternate between writing and crafting. One month I'll crochet so many projects, the next month I'll write so many short stories or pages of a script, and then next I'll craft different projects...so on and so forth. At least that's the plan!
