all this said with tongue firmly in cheek i presume  ....:-))) 
it's true i, too , have several pillows and have had three or four projects 
waiting .....but i've come to the conclusion that starting more than two 
projects at the same time is bad for the threads : they wait for such a 
long time they become snappy ... 
so this summer : a wedding garter and later on probably the collar from 
Retournac museum that was in the  pack they've just issued ... but will 
have to try and do it with thinner thread . 18/2 linen is really too thick 
.
