I get stuck in the same situation occasionally. Considering that all of the hobbies on here are supposed to be enjoyable I find that I have to put it away when it is no longer giving me joy. I usually find that I get back to it within a week or so. I have to confess tho…I never put a project away if there’s a problem with it. First I fix the problem then put it in a “time-out” until it learns to behave. (Like it’s not my own fault lol) then when I get back to it I don’t dread it and we pick up like old friends. Sometimes I put it away too many times and accept that I am wasting my time being frustrated. At that point it’s time to repurpose or rehome it and move on. Such is life.

It happens to me too when I leave doing every day but I ever only work in one project. Now working on an EstEs pattern from the Forum called Cow Girl oval. Its a big project. I just finished before this one, a Golden kite which was very hard and took me many time. I think this is my secret only one at a time,works everyday, the time that I can or that I like. As soon I notice the progress I improve myself to continue.
Dont loose the illusion.

I do cross stitch, but to combat this problem I usually have a few different projects going at a time.. But sometimes I go a month or more without a single stitch! I try to do my other hobby in between so I dont get burnout. I think this ia the best way for me, otherwise it becomes too much if I stitch all day, every single day.

We all lost our stitching mojo from time to time.  For me, I enjoy looking at the stitching diaries and peoples work to get inspired again.  Check out stitching blogs or watch flosstube to help get back into it again.  Itll come to you!

I have it all in the lounge room, my lap stand and so on, so even if I dont do it, it stares at me as if to say "COME ON, STITCH!"  Details Reply Post time 2022-3-24 16:31
