What a fantastic idea! Also will create a great memento of your work (aside from the dissertation itself). I might have to try this in regard to tracking injury pain. I like to stitch felt toys when I am too stressed to think but need to be creative. Following someone else's pattern lets my hands do creative work when my brain is too tired. And then when my brain wakes up, I can add my own bits of flair.

Oh I love that system of following a pattern when your brain needs it and freestyling when you can! Tracking pain would be a FASCINATING project and a nice way to visually record a very personal experience. I included a hint of that in mine and when I was making my row today, Bee commented right away that I was not making the headache stitch!
