Almost Dones

 I've got a lot of half done things making me feel guilty at the moment. This bobbin needs to be plied but I don't feel like plying. I need to have my wits about me to do that but this wind and cold is making me a bit crazy.


 Ditto for the Olympic fiber leftovers. Ready to be plied but all I want to do is lay in bed and watch Netflix. Seen Seven Seconds yet? Wow....just wow.



I keep telling myself that I can visit the fiber shelf for a new project to spin if I get them done but it's not working.


 Same for the mini St Patty's quilt. Me and it had a serious issue so I am not speaking to it at the moment. It needs to be sandwiched and quilted but I can't stand to look at it right now. Who ever said Nine Patch was an easy block? It isn't. And don't get me started on that border. I can't tell you how many times I ripped this whole thing apart. Now I know why I paper piece these things. I stink at actual piecing.


 Anyway...I've got lots of soap to wrap. The first of four batches is ready this week. I love cleaning and wrapping soap-so I know at least I will get that done.

    I've got a lot of plying staring me in the face right now too but I think I'll go check out Seven Seconds instead. You've intriqued me.

    Thespun fiber looks so pretty on the wheel. I miss spinning. I also think that little quilt is darling. It looks great to me but I know I’m not the one giving it the silent treatment. :-)
    Blessings,

    So you need to do the things that you can wrap your head around! There is a lot going on for your brain right now; be patient with yourself and watch your energy level soar with the bathroom done and Spring really here for keeps! (We even had another morning of frost!)

    I can identify with putting projects in "time out". There's a shawl that went horribly wrong and every time I pass the table it's on I realize I've made a nasty face at the poor thing. On the other hand, your soap looks beautifully well-behaved!

    Surely the soap fumes will help! All that lovely fragrance is sure to bring back some crafting mojo.

    Sometimes projects need to marinate a bit, so don't feel bad. I have a shawl on the needles that's been in time out for several months. I'll pick it up again sometime.

    Sometimes finishing is the hardest part. I've had a baby bonnet sitting here for almost a week - it just needs bear ears, but I just can't seem to pick it up!

    Do whatever makes you happy! Hope you let the St. Paddy's quilt out of time out soon; I think it looks great. You get way more accomplished than you give yourself credit for!
