There has been a lot of sewing happening around here. Two dresses (!!!) in a week kind of sewing. Throw in a pieced quilt back which was then basted to a top that I contributed to, but didn't assemble. And now, the quilting of that project. It feels good to be productive and especially in the studio, which by nature of its location on the 3rd floor, is much, much warmer than the rest of the house. I think I could stay up there indefinitely. Winter, I want to break up with you.
I know I keep mentioning this back log of Erin-sewn clothes that need blogging and still have yet to do anything about it. The sun is supposed to make an appearance tomorrow so I think I will just throw each one on the dress form and take some beauty shots. If I have a good hair day and feel up to it (under the weather here, with one kid sick, too), I might even set up the tripod with the remote and get some on-the-body shots. And then I will blog them, one by one as I feel like it. That seems like a plan. The point being, that I need a plan. The second point being that an onset of clothing posts is going to happen soon. You've been forewarned.
I hate it when it gets quiet in this space. I miss it. I miss you, the conversation, the community. For whatever reason, the longer I let it sit, the harder it is to get going again. Also, it's strange, but it seems like I have less time to blog than I used to. That can't really be the case so I am trying to look into my work patterns and see what else has changed. I'm not sure what is so different. But really, I just need to jump in so that is what I am doing. Again.
Feel better. Lots of ick stuff going around here. Looking forward to your clothes posts! Always so good!
I love to see anything that you sew, but am especially looking forward to seeing the clothing. As I wear mostly dresses I need to sew a lot of my own clothing. Always nice to get inspiration and motivation from others.
A warm sunny studio cures what ails all of us – even the little ones. Sounds like you’ve been busy through all of it – give yourself a pat on the back! Take care, Byrd
hi! your happy colors make me smile 😉
That quilt looks awesome. I am happy for anything you post and know just what you mean about jumping back in, the more I blog the more I blog but if there’s a gap then it is hard to know where to start. I definitely had more time to blog before or maybe it was just more of a priority. Feel better soon. Josie x
I am in the same place of missing the conversation that I used to be a part of on crafty blogs. I am in and out of it in spurts, I comment far less frequently than I used to, and end up posting very little about what I make anymore. I’m always glad to see you in this space and look forward (hopefully) to more posts from you soon.
I missed seeing this post but I think it is great, so hi. I feel like I am in the same boat with blogging, except that I haven’t even been reading any for so long. I really do love the format so I am hoping to get the wheels turning again. Or at least leave some comments.
