Today’s #FinishOrFrogAlong Q&A - yesterday’s poll revealed many people get stuck finishing projects for reasons from ADHD to shiny object syndrome, from putting it aside and forgetting about it to reaching a challenging part and needing a break. What works for you to overcome these blockers? What tips do you have for your fellow crafters?

Just home from the Tatreez workshop at V & A Dundee, the workshop was organised by Tatreez Collective.

If you get a chance to go to a workshop by T.C, please go. No stitching experience required as they talk you through the steps to cross stitch.

It was a really interesting workshop, about the history of Palestinian stitching and the meaning of some of the main patterns used. Obviously politics did come into it.

Tatreez Collective was set up to preserve the embroidery, the meaning, while also providing work for women in Palestine.

They addressed the point of cultural appropriation, their reasoning is, it is not cultural appropriation so long as you describe it as Tatreez or Palestinian Embroidery and spread on the knowledge of what the patterns mean.

I realise this is a rambling description of the workshop and probably makes no sense. I feel horrific and can't stop shaking after the effort of today, but I wanted to tell you about it before it leaves my brain.

Today's #FinishOrFrogAlong Q&A: as we near the end of our week focused on frogging or scrapping projects - many people get stuck in the “sunk cost” trap and don’t want to give up on time and materials already invested in a project. What tips do you to help people let go? What’s worked for you to help you decide it’s time to scrap a project and move on?

The frame hasn’t arrived, so it’s not cleaned and stretched, but it is finished!

The overall design is my own, but the phrase is from a bumper sticker, the alphabet is from StardustAndStitching on Etsy and I morphed several pixel art Enterprises for the ship
