The Start of Something Big

I have lots of fabric, from near and far.  And I have lots of ideas.  But I don't seem to get projects started and/or finished.  Sound familiar?

Earlier this month I sewed 3 items in 3 days and felt FANTASTIC!  The main project was a custom bag so my best friend could carry her father's urn to Michigan.  When that was finished, I felt great!  And it looked great!  I had to keep going, to feel happy, proud, confident.  So next I finished a baby quilt for a young friend.  And then I made my best friend a sleep skirt to take on her trip to MI.

I'm realizing that I must find time to do more of what I love - gardening, sewing, crafting - to survive.  The depression, the sadness, the lethargy.  The lack of confidence.  So, in the past 3 days, I have started one project and started/finished a second project.  And I squeezed in some time today to work in the garden, until I got a splitting headache.  Survive, succeed, flourish.

Pictures will be posted soon.
