I need to figure out a way to spend more time in my sewing space.
I realized this morning just now how much I miss creating. I have been spending most of my time finishing things for the last two years and it just isn't as stimulating.
Making something new gives me the enthusiasm to create more. It makes me happy. Whether it's with cloth or some other medium, making and doing are my spark.
I even like to create in the kitchen. One of my favorite things is to bake. . . make desserts. After Christmas I put all the leftover cookies and fudge, and cake etc. in the freezer (there was a lot) and we have been slowly eating them up. Convenient yes, but I miss cooking.
I think it's normal to have the post-Christmas Blahs.
Time to snap out of it.
So, I gathered the fabrics for the rest of my bird quilt.
They just sparkle!

Also, Dotti in Connecticut, I appreciate your comment but I have no way to send you a reply.

oooh i do love that assortment of fabrics....i want to finish stuff too but intersperse UFO sewing with new small projects to keep my mojo up...what a lovely and spacious sewing space
Great fabric pull for the birds quilt...it does sparkle...;)))
Those blahs are still hanging around here, too. January is that kind of month for me usually...
But my comfort cloth is keeping me busy...today I am couching a lavender/pinky sari silk ribbon in a circle on top...just a bit at a time...I seem to be drawn to circles this year...hugs, Julierose
Really the only resolution I had for 2025 was to have fun in my sewing room. It somehow elevates my mood to be in there, even if it is for only a short while. I know what you mean about the UFOs though. I spent the last 2 years doing the same thing and this year I decided NOT to participate in our guild's annual UFO challenge. I just want to have fun sewing and I wish that for you as well!
