How could I forget?
The biggest UFO in my entire sewing room is the pavilion started in June! There are literally miles of seams to finish. That may take the entire month of November!!!

Reworking of NaNoWriMo
Recently, a post on the SCA Garb Facebook page caught my attention. It referenced the annual National Novel Writing Month program for November, but with a twist. Instead of writing, the poster suggested we all gather up our half finished garb projects and try and finish as many of them as possible during the month of November. She noted that most seamstress/tailors/embroiderers all have projects that just haven't made it to completion and that this might be a way to avoid starting new projects and abandoning old ones, for at least one month out of the year. I'm in! I'm gathering up incomplete projects and figuring out what I need to do or have to get them done. So far I have two heraldic dog coats that only need buttons and button holes and a heraldic banner for my mother that need the casing finished. I'm sure there are more projects lurking in my sewing room and I plan to go fishing for at least 30 minutes each evening. This should be both fun and productive!
