I've got several projects in the works currently, including a beautiful apron and some dinner napkins. There are other finished projects around the house: pairs of pajama pants, coasters, drawstring pouches, and smaller trinketry. Finally all of these supplies that I have compiled can come into use.
I've literally had a month and a half to craft until my heart's content. It was motivated by inexpensive Christmas gift giving and spurred on by excessive free time. It has been perfect. Now, as I finally start working again next week, I'm afraid I will miss the time I've had to do this. I've really discovered a joy in sewing lately. I enjoy the combining of fabrics, the series of patterns, and thinking methodically about procedure. I can pass the time, or just set it down and do something else for a bit.
Perhaps it is a good thing that I haven't started making clothes yet. I feel that will make the addiction complete. I've been eyeing patterns and re-makes meticulously. I have a feeling there will be a Pinterest board to come of it (see button up top). But for now, I will think of a way to get rid of some coasters . . .
