What I’ve Been Doing

I admit I’ve had a bit of a lull in sewing production the last few weeks. The danger of loving as many crafts as I do is that it’s easy to get a little involved in a lot of projects without really finishing any.

I started knitting this Central Park Hoodie over Christmas break. I like the repetition of the cable pattern and it’s easy to knit while watching a movie or Project Runway as the case may be in my house. Unlike sewing with its quick results, this sweater takes some investment of your time. At this rate, I should be done by Christmas 2016.

And I am still in my pottery obsession phase. Being at the studio gives me such a great creative outlet that I don’t feel as driven to crank out sewing projects when the weekend rolls around. Instead I find myself plotting different glaze combinations I’d like to try and rationalizing that it’s okay to have 20 similar bowls because who really needs plates, cups and mugs anyway?

Stay tuned, though, because I’m feeling the sewing bug again and I have some new indie patterns burning a hole on my sewing table!
