Have I finished any projects?
Nope
Have I started something?
Well sort of......
With covid and stresses related to it
And now protesters all over the city
I decided to stress sew.
I picked the 2.5 inch bucket
Pulled whitish and black squares
And made 4 patches
They would make a cute border for a small project
When i ran out of those i pulled fall colors
And made 4 patches
About 17 of them before I had to go to work
Stress sewing...
After texting brother who has shingles again near his eye. I feel so bad for him.
And niece who wants to peacefully protest
But nearby towns had riots and fires and i dont want her there
Makes me sick.
Do you stress sew? I dont even know what I am making.
Just sewing to keep busy
And pray that this messed up world heals
I stress clean. Or work outside. Away from all types of media, news, social media.
ReplyDeleteYes, turn off the media. A stroll outside helps. I don't stress sew, but found I have worked more with bright colors during this time.
ReplyDeleteNow i also stress sew--with me it's either postage stamp squares or strip piecing.

Soooo, sew, sew, sew.....or quilt by hand...
That's what I am doing....
hugs from afar--stay safe now Julierose
Yes, sewing is so calming. I think that's why I'm making such great progress on my pineapples. I'm also reading books more. Anything to get my mind off what's going on!
ReplyDeleteI'm praying with you. It's a mess everywhere and I'm feeling so hopeless. Trying to shake it and focus on happier things but it sure is getting tough to do. Here's hoping for a better weekend.
