I have been sewing like mad for the last few weeks and guess what? I have barely finished a single item. What exactly do you call this condition? What does it say about me that I lose interest too quickly or am easily distracted by the next great project that comes along?
I also found I couldn't blog about a project until I finished it which made for a very sad and sorry looking blog indeed!
I have decided to try and post about all my projects right from the "Cutting Of The Fabric" stage and seeing if this helps. Not only with finishing WIPs but getting a blog post out every couple of days at least!
As a craft blog reader myself I actually like seeing the whole journey of projects being made and well as the end result. So somebody may actual enjoy my posts or at the very least find it useful.
They aren't actually finished yet as they have no faces:(
To be totally honest I am too scared to paint their faces as I am so messy at it and don't want to ruin the cute little things.
Tutorial was found here and I would like to say thank you to Virginia Lindsay, creator of Gingercake Patterns and the blog Gingercake for sharing her gnomes with us. I found them quite adorable.
Well bye for now. I would like to finish a neck pillow as its nearly done! Alas I also have a friend coming over tomorrow to help me landscape my front garden and I have to do some preliminary work first.
Also try and catch up with another friend whose daughter is getting married and I have volunteered to help her with the tasks she has to do for the wedding, like make the guest gifts and table decorations. She also had to alter her daughters wedding gown and re sew the intricate lace and beading. Now she has to give it a gentle wash. I don't want to help her with THAT too much as all hell will break loose is something happens to the dress! I will give her emotional support and thats about all! lol
