I started May off with a challenge to myself to do something sewing related every day. I had not sewn regularly this year because of work overload and I was really needing to. My challenge started off well. I got my sewing area cleaned up. I made myself work on the never-ending hexagon project. I did some hems for a friend and learned to make a tiny rolled hem in the process. I worked on the BOM project and got inspiration. And at last I was motivated to start on a fun project - but in a reasonable size.
Did I do something sewing related every day? No. But I only missed 4 days and those were all for good cause - end of the school year exhaustion and job hunting. So I think my overall goal of getting myself back into the sewing room and focused on something did work.
I also got back into blogging which does help me stay accountable. I got caught up on my Stash Reports and Friday Finishes. I can see a direct correlation between not sewing and adding to the stash, so I am very happy to have fabric moving the right direction again.
My summer break has started and I am excited that I am already motivated to sew and craft and don't have to take the first month to clean and organize like I did last summer. Here's hoping for a good, relaxing summer of sewing and crafting.
