Try As I Might...

I keep looking at all these blog posts by all these wonderful women, and get frustrated with myself.

Why? I hear you ask? Because I want to do so many things at once, and just don't have the time or the funds to do so.  I have to keep reminding myself that most of these ladies are either retired or stay at home Mum's, so in essence have slightly more time than I do to complete all their sewing/quilting projects. Also they are generally faster/have been doing these things a long time, and I am just learning to do them.  I suppose if they were to see how quickly I design jewellery pieces or work bead patterns, the tables would be turned.

Don't get me wrong I love learning new things and creating pieces made with love to give away.  Just sometimes, like today, the frustration gets the better of me and makes me sad and overwhelmed with all the ideas I have.

I currently have 3 projects on the go, and a list for about 6 more new projects to start ... all before Christmas!  This is not including the 4 Sashiko panels I have already completed that need turning into cushions/wall hangings!

So frustrated I will stay! :P
