Back to zero!

Hi again!

Those who have been following me a long time will know that stitching every day, even if only for five minutes, is a bit of an obsession. 

Starting on 1st January 2015, I made it to 540 days before a trip to A&E with my son ended that streak.

Restarting on 26th June 2016, all looked well, right up to 20th September 2022 when, after 2278 stitching days in a row, the counter reset to zero and stayed there for Three. Full. Days.  :(



Although I'm a little frustrated, I can more than see the funny side of this obsession, so am OK if you want to laugh along with me at my 'failure'!

I have calculated it will take until 18th December 2028 to surpass 2278 days in a row again, and it made me wonder (a) if I'd make it, and (b) if I'd still be stitching the same WIPs I have now! Only time will tell...

Take care,
Rachel x

  3. Oh no!! I can’t imagine three days without a single stitch. I’d have to be in hospital myself. Probably unconscious.
    Good luck with beating the streak this time.

  4. Oh no. I sure hope everything is okay to keep you away for 3 days. Big hugs for whatever restarted the counter. We will all be cheering you on for the next milestone.

  5. Uh oh! Sorry to see you had to stop stitching for a few days. I hope that there is nothing seriously wrong at your house. I know you will be able to set a new record for yourself and surpass your old one. I will be standing on the side line with Katie cheering you on!!

  6. Oh no, I'm so sorry that happened, especially since I can imagine that what ever kept you from stitching for 3 days can't have been a fun occasion. Nevertheless, that's an impressive record, and I'm glad you are still motivated to do it.
