It's a cold night up here in the sewing/office and I know it's just going to get colder. I'm not such a fan of cold. Or hot for that matter. But then again sometimes I live in my own utopia inside my head where it's 70 all year. Yeah.
I want to sew. Alot. But up here in the cave I can barely see anything. I hunch over to see where the needle's meeting the fabric and my back starts protesting. So I'm done for the night after finishing up two cloth diapers.
And then there's this problem I often run in to - time. Wouldn't it be nice if I didn't have to sleep but everyone else did.... I could clean and sew and bake lovely things everytime the kids went to sleep. Everyone would oooh and aaaah and ask, "Where do you find the time?" And I'll just laugh and say, "It's so easy, anyone can do it" and secretly think, "ha, ha, you'll never live up to me!!"....
Starting to wonder if you should've maybe NOT have read this thing because you've discovered I'm a loonie-bird? Or maybe that you're just like me? Hm.
So I met the lovely Anna Maria Horner on Saturday. Actually there were several events on that day that have recently inspired me to get off my tush (doesn't that make it sound so much smaller?) and get to work. I want to splash her colors all over my sewing room and let them inspire me on a daily basis....I want to be fabulous and get all the ideas in my head out onto my "canvas"...... I plan on visiting her site on a daily basis to keep up the inspiration.
In the meantime, here's the inspiration out the front door--

Come back anytime. There's enough crazy to go around :)
