That can be a very useful pointer to something I would enjoy sewing (if it is an item I want to make myself).<br />This keeps my thinking in the head space where I get more easily motivated to start sewing again.Gisellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109646912314640079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5862826007041372149.post-37079676330491256022016-06-25T05:17:40.481-07:002016-06-25T05:17:40.481-07:00This is such a great post!

Thanks very much for writing it Tash!<br /><br />I find that I started a lot of projects and it was frustrating to not finish things. When I did finish a garment it often didn't fit great, and that all added up to lots of frustration that then turned into a lack of sewing mojo. <br /><br />I've been doing much better recently: I picked up a few WIPs again and only did a little bit at one time on each one of them. But it gave me the very welcome feeling of progress with each. Wonderful!<br />That in turn made me able to pick up two rather old fabrics and finally start skirts. I am really pleased with how it's going and that's brought my sewing mojo back with a vengeance! I am so glad.Gisellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109646912314640079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5862826007041372149.post-10532192660374770662016-06-11T23:47:59.477-07:002016-06-11T23:47:59.477-07:00What a wise post.

I am going to print it out and pin it up for the next time this happens- actually it has suggestions I should implement in any case, such as planning ahead and organising.Barbaragshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10673430293084185078noreply@blogger.com
