Easily influenced

I am easily influenced by books and crafts.  I have a list of books a mile long I'd like to read.  I have gotten myself overwhelmed with too many craft projects.  There are so many crafts I'd like to make. I'm trying to work on one big project (granny square blanket) and one small project (any small project around the house that isn't finished.)  This has worked well over the past month.  If I do add a project I try to make it small and quick to finish.  I saw Teresa Kasner post a lacy heart doily on her blog.  It was so pretty!  I knew I had to make one.  This time I handled the urge to start something new a little differently. Before I started making the lacy hearts I set a goal to work a little on current projects.  I made several granny squares and worked on my felt snowmen.  It was good to see some progress before starting something new.  It was also nice to feel a little less guilty about starting a new project.

Two snowmen have scarves

The lacy hearts pattern is by Crochet Milan. Teresa's blog is Teresakasner . 

I made my Lacy Hearts with Hobby Lobby's Love This Cotton.  It's bulkier than I wanted but it's what was in the craft room.  I may look for a less bulky yarn.  

It's suppose to be frigid in Northern Virginia this weekend.  My plan is to add the scarves to the other snowmen, make granny squares, and maybe make another Lacy Heart.
