I took a minute to think about it, so far I know I have got half done:
a dolls' house
mittens
baby hat
4 cross stich
crochet blanket
applique napkins
an apron I'm sewing
I've also noticed I've passed this affliction onto my daughters who have a couple of cross stitches and a scarf each and inherited a half done cross stich from my Granny who died 15 months ago

I am terrible for having 'projects' half done around the house:
Half crochet bag made with plarn!
A handful of fimo sculptures
Crochet'd mitten (only 1)
Half sewn tote bags
Half made Tutu's
Half painted pictures
More half crochet'd things.

The half made tutu's have got me wondering. Who were they being made for, and is it too late for them to be worn now?

I made about a dozen of them in the hope of selling them on eBay. They never did sell.
The half ones are where I ran out of tulle... Might have some pics somewhere...
Oh, here is a few:

Oh Knikitta, the tutu's are lovely. What a shame they didn't sell on E-bay as those sort of things aren't easy to find.
Maybe next time!

Part finished projects -
Have a 80% finished cross stitch but I am struggling to see to thread the needle and follow the chart as my eyesight has 'faded'
Two crochet projects that I keep forgetting what to do (double and trebles????)
A super chunky gilet that I've done the fronts and back but now needs the collar doing which means picking stitches up
I think that is about it, not too bad!

Oh dear, more folks like me!
Currently 1/2 done :-
Garage roof, made from cladding steel sheets, on but needs side and front facias, then coating with bitumen paint.
Decorating whole house. Situation normal. Is it possible to finish this job? Just as you finish, the first bit you did is due to be redecorated. DO NOT UNDER ESTIMATE HOW MUCH I HATE DECOATING!!!!!!!!!!!
Watering the allotment. Beheading the weeds. Sowing the seeds. DO NOT UNDER ESTIMATE HOW MUCH I ENJOY THESE JOBS :- ESPECIALLY BEHEADING THE WEEDS.
Now I've got that off my chest, where's my beer?
