In Sewing News Today...

Have a table load of stars to finish sewing.

Instead, I drove Mama R to a hair appointment, scored a hair cut for myself while waiting, came home and passed out.

Yup, I felt this tired. {Source}
Sometimes you just have to recharge your battery despite how much sewing is on your table.

I'm feeling panicked that they must be finished in a week. Not lovin' this feeling.


It did motivate me to serge the edges of two more stars and then I gave up since I tend to make mistakes when I'm tired.


Still feeling panicked about getting them done. And I need to wear my ski pants tomorrow that has been in my mending pile to be shortened. I don't like to do mending and alterations.


It has not been a productive sewing day. Unless you count...


Over at Butterick where I was able to score kAtheRine Tilton's latest pattern which is on sale right now.

Gawd, I love happy endings.

  1. I see what you mean, and agree with every word you said :) I hate sewing when "I have to", it's supposed to be pleasant! :)

    1. I will admit that I don't like the time crunch that goes with "have-to" projects especially when I'm not feeling up to sewing. But it is rewarding in the end when I get to hear how excited the kids are about the play and costumes. Too cute beyond words.
