Last night's FNSI (Friday night Sew-in!!)

Last night I participated in the 1st FNSI for a few months!! I actually accomplished a LOT though!!

I was inspired by this quilt, made by Amanda Jean Nyberg from Crazy Mom Quilts.

Catching up makes me out of breath!!

For a while now, I've been QUITE lethargic and kinda just letting my life slide by.

I've been known to sign into Netflix and just watch 1/2 a season of a show...pausing to care for the kids, of course, but beyond that...nope.

I am finding that I get "burnt out" very easily & then feel overwhelmed when I try to start up again...

Example:




I started going through my craft room, packing (into a large plastic bin) anything that isn't a current project.

I'm hoping that by removing all the random fabrics and assorted randomness, I'll have a cleaner craft room to actually be able to use & stop abusing...

New embroidery share!!

I started this a few weeks ago...



I really enjoy the added dimension it gives the piece...I'll post more pics as I continue with more of the flowers on this fabric.
