"A Pretty Package" |
Why, start a new project,
of course!
An early Christmas gift for me.
Pattern and fabric purchased in Pigeon Forge.
I know, I'm breaking my self-imposed rule of finishing two UFOs before I start a new one. But Self gave me permission in order to get me out of first gear. Or was I in reverse? Hmmm ....
Sometimes that's what it takes to jumpstart the sewing mojo.
And, technically, I did have two finishes last week (see Friday and Sunday posts), albeit both were new projects. Uh oh, I think I see a pattern developing here.
The important thing is I'm sewing again and there will be fabric going out of my stash, right?
I couldn't get a picture of the deer herd yesterday because my camera battery was dead, dead, dead. But after a quick charge I snapped this creature as it waddled through the woods. She was sitting for quite a while under the burning bushes (no, they were not on fire) overlooking the driveway. By the time I got the battery charged she had moved on and blended into the woodsy backdrop.

Oh what fun your Christmas quilt will be! I love the ornament fabric. We need to do whatever it takes to get our sewing mojo going, so I say bring on the new projects! The UFO's will always be there waiting. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ramona. The quilt is supposed to be "quilt as you go" but I couldn't see me wrangling all that fabric through my machine so I'm strip piecing
DeleteGetting the sewing mojo back is definitely "the important thing"! I love that pattern - I'm afraid I'd have to start on it immediately too :)
