I'm wondering if you ever feel like you are a hopeless case. Do you wonder why on earth your husband still loves you, and why your friends haven't commited you yet? I am now convinced that I'm going through some sort of mid life crisis. Let's call it pre-menopausal crazy(maybe). Or, perhaps I'm just a very obsessive person that must always have something to obsess about; kind of like the "stages" I spoke of before in THIS post.
Well, last week I went nuts with the fabric flowers. I think I made dinner once, and my poor husband has to walk around all of my "stuff" in this already crowded house. However, I find myself getting so excited about every new fun crafy thing I run across as I blog surf that I just want to try it all!!!
So, I hope you have seen all the flowers I have posted before. Here is a new one:
I'm so mad, because I made some more super cute ones that I sold and didn't take pictures of. :(
Then I went back to Hobby Lobby to get more fabric, but I just can't get it all done. Here comes the ADD.
Cut out shapes with new fabric
Cut out more with more fabric
Go to Hobby Lobby and cut out more
As you can see, still getting nowhere, well, maybe a little somewhere.
Find old clothes you never wear, pick some out for your thin friend and then dream about turning the rest into FLOWERS!
Take a break and go to TJ MAXX buy a skirt! (must have flowers)
Oh! Didn't that girl at Ruffles and Stuff have a super cute shirt she made? It was so simple, I bet I could make it! (even though I don't sew, but she makes me want to quit my job, move next door to her and sew ruffles all day!)
Let's try:
Not great pictures, and it isn't finished yet, but I knew it was my first try with a shirt I was willing to "play" with.
OH! But let's not forget the super adorable wreath I began to work on before Easter:
and please note that right in front of it there is wrap bracelet that I began before the wreath! And no, it isn't finished.
This is my work area:
The sewing machine has to go on the kitchen table, so when it is time to eat it all get's shoved somewhere or lands in ... where can I put all this??
Please remember I have at least 6 picture frames that need atention and the letters "CREATE" that I painted but have no where to go.
Mercy me, What IS wrong with me? Do I seriously need intervention? I want to send my boys camping for a week and get it all done. HA! Who am I kidding? Then I would have twice as many unfinished projects that I have found serfing in my "free time."
Need more retail therapy. Must but new $9.99 skirt at Ross which is right next to Hobby Lobby anyway.
What else can I say?
Finished flower pictures coming soon.. But don't hold your breath!
