Too Many Chores!


I have far too many self imposed chores that are hampering potential sewing time! This weekend I have planted a pot of bulb lasagne, washed floors, cleaned windows, erected a fairy light bedecked rose arch, made lime pickle, blanched and frozen veg, done laundry, put up more kitchen shelves, dealt with cobwebs, and sterilised jam jars!

At work a retreat was in full swing which means lots of washing up, cutting fabric, finding matching threads and getting a large customer quilt done for one of the course participants. 



I should have been making more samples for my L890 course this week but I did manage to embellish a half finished project and turn it into a lever arch file cover, which is what I intend my pupils to make on their creative day. 




I need to have stern words with myself to do fewer household jobs and allow more time for outings to the seaside and making things such as a notebook cover for Nella’s birthday. It is funny that she requested this since my children were usually mortified by my fabric homework book covers when they were at school;)
