I've been a bit of a grumpy bum around here lately.
Wasn't sure why.
Then I realised.
I've not been making things.
I realised yesterday when BossyGirl
got out her sewing case and fabric stash.
(yes it's true I used to get little squares as gifts when ordering quilting fabric from the US.
She's got about 100 4" squares)
She started off making clothes for Barbie
and I showed her how to use the sewing machine.
She then went off and whipped this up for me.
As a gift, because she loves me.
Even though I've been grumpy.
It's the cutest thing ever.
So inspired by her I pulled up my socks
and got stuck into something I'd had on the 'back burner' for years.
I stretched some new canvases and tidied up the backs of others I had made already.
When I get it all together they will be for sale, somewhere.
I've not decided where yet.
What inspires you to actually get moving!
I also get grumpy when I am not crafting but sometimes I want to make a heap of things and then do none.But when I do I feel so much better,
ReplyDeleteAnd the little horse is adorable.
