I have motored thru a a few things recently. My 1930's dress is mostly together. I finished the main knitting in a sweater. I helped the offspring grade a pattern, cut a muslin and fit it in only 4 hours. Today, I thought I would finish the 30's dress or finish the sweater. I did neither.
I did some hand sewing on the dress but not much. And I did it all crazy. I did all the bias binding except one armhole. Why? I cannot answer. I hemmed 1/4 of a sleeve and then set it down. I finished knitting the body of the sweater. I need to sew up the arm seams and make a 60" I-cord. I did 1 1/4 sleeve and 1/2 the I-cord.
I'm restless and can't finish one thing. Instead I'm doing a little of everything.
At least I didn't start the knitting needle cases I bought fabric for. These are a gift. I wouldn't mention it but I'm pretty sure she doesn't read the blog.
Tomorrow I need to take a beastly hike. Then I will be happy to sit and do fiddly things for a few hours. And no, I didn't take pictures of failure. This is not a 'learning' failure. This is an utter lack of discipline failure.
Tomorrow is another day.
It's summer. I find it remarkably difficult to concentrate. But let's unpack that fourth sentence. " I helped the offspring grade a pattern, cut a muslin and fit it in only 4 hours."
ReplyDeleteGood god, you are superpowered! Stand down, wonder woman!
It is hard to concentrate. My machine is at the shop again, and the loaner I have is a piece of plastic poo. I can do no harm.
