Stamp, Throw, Plan and other Verbs

I picked up my U2-themed embroidered jacket again.  I'm embroidering a map of Ireland on the back.  I know, crazy!  It's a jean jacket with orange, white and green embroidery floss.

I've been reading about the 365 days of creating projects, where you pick a theme and do one thing or parts of a bigger project every day for a year.  I have lots of crafty/arty supplies and I don't want to die with them going unused.  Not that I'm going to die soon!  Everything's cool...  I've been thinking that so many of my projects, like crochet and embroidery ones, take so long.  It's not like you can't tell I've put the time in.  I'm wondering what would happen if I finished one project a week.  I wouldn't be creating on it every day necessarily, but I would have more finishes.

I know, I have too much going on already.  But crafting is very relaxing for me, and some of them could be short writing projects.  (Mars has been in Virgo for 7 months, I'm so ready for Mars to go into Libra, you don't even know)  So I would take pictures and write progress notes and post them on CoachCreativeSpace (30 Days of Creating: http://coachcreativespace.ning.com/group/thirtydaysofcreating and here.  So, I'm thinking, projects I can do in a week, or a day if I'm cheating!

I even have a theme for the next 28 weeks:  Space and Beyond

So am I completely nuts?


Here's a picture of the stamps I made with a Speed-ball kit, then a picture of a throw I finally finished, and a close-up of my crocheting technique (granny square) not in that order:
