Oh. Hi.
Still trying to find my sewing mojo. Would you believe it’s been SIX WEEKS since I sat down at my sewing machine? There’s a million small reasons why, but I’m sure a lot of it is simply the fact that I got out of the habit.
Anyways, my kids left for a weekend away with my in-laws (first time, eep!), and I decided it was time to just sit down and do it. So what was the first thing I attempted?
A paper-pieced cyclone block that was overdue for one of my Bees.
Yes, I’m a glutton for punishment.
I messed up several VERY FRUSTRATING times in the beginning, which resulted in a lot of time spent picking out teeny tiny stitches and trying not to completely ruin the paper. But ultimately, I got into a decent groove and I think it turned out pretty well.
Hopefully this is the beginning of something good and I’ll have more sewing progress to report, soon!
