Slower Things

     I have crashed after a long period of going and going. I feel as if I am walking in deep sand this week and going nowhere fast. I want to pull the covers up and sleep although I haven't found much space for that. I have things up on my design wall but it's not clicking. So I sat with one of my many unfinished projects. Quietly and slowly stitching. I am tired of rushing.


     Maybe some things just are meant to take longer than others. Hope to get my energy back soon. Might take a highly caffeinated beverage to make it through today though.

Be creative for me, would you? Happy sewing, my friends.

  2. I'm with you. I have found deadlines very stressful, whether self-imposed or not. Slowing down is a good antidote.

  3. paula--love those books-just read them this summer after borrowing them from the girl across the street in VT. Ha-you are still a little bit VT. Glad to see you know how to chill.

    Ruth-deadlines...they do push me forward though!

  4. I'm with you Colleen. I have spent this week, so far, putting fabric up, taking it down, not sure where I want to go, and not getting anywhere. Oh well, something will happen at some point! I have spent 2 weeks doing other things, and sending my youngest off on his own, so it is tricky getting back to the studio. Good luck! It will happen.
