What's Up

Well this is what I have up on my design wall, and has been at there for quite a while.

 A couple weeks ago I posted that my what's up was to cleanup my sewing room. Which I did. 

This is a lot neater believe or not

And since then, I have not done a bit as stitching, at least in the sewing room. I have done some handwork and some knitting but that's about it so far.

Mainly what's going on right now is getting the garden ready and planting the spring vegetables.

But my word for the year is focus, so what I'm going to try to do is focus a little bit each day on my sewing. That's as time allows when not away from the home with appointments, etc. So I'm going to try to devote at least 15 to 30 minutes a day in there doing a little bit of sewing.

In the past that's not how I do my sewing. I'm one that likes to go in there and work for hours. I enjoy sewing and so once I get into it it's hard for me to stop. And I think that's part of the reason why I haven't been sewing. It's because I have a frame of mind that once I go in there I have to have a few hours devote to sewing and I haven't had that time. But now I'm going think of it as short periods of time, just 15-30 minutes, and see what happens. 

If I don't do this I don't see how I'm going to get any of the projects I have started or want to do done this year.

That's my mantra
