i am a TERRIBLE sewer. i’m about to finish my first skirt. i’d never wear it, dunno who would. i’ll probably tear it up and make a pillow as soon as i finish sewing the hem.
really it was about the process. really.

i am a TERRIBLE sewer. i’m about to finish my first skirt. i’d never wear it, dunno who would. i’ll probably tear it up and make a pillow as soon as i finish sewing the hem.
really it was about the process. really.
...because i don’t do things the easy way like most people (in fact, at 33, i STILL haven’t “backpacked around europe”, lol…)
yes, worth it – i’d go back in a heartbeat if i could – given the opportunity to travel with what i know now after years of experience…
i’ve completed knitting project (another “thing” of mine, lol) but… i still can’t stop buying far more yarn than i can keep up with… disease! in addition, just cleaned out my storage unit after two years, and now i have a PILE of art supplies – i am overwhelmed by it all and looking to sell it off… maybe if i stop buying as well as get rid of a lot of it, i can complete the stuff that i love to do – make jewelry and clothes, spin yarn, knit and crochet…
