Default Actually sewing!

My life is no less hectic, and things have not really settled down or become
normal, BUT I have found some time to do some simple stitching and OH did it
feel divine. I was in my own world, fondling fabrics and humming with my SM.
I had forgotten how relaxing and rewarding it is to sit and do something but
nothing. Does that make ANY sense?
I know my brain is a tad scattered and things don't always make a lot of
sense but at least I know now I found something that helps me feel better
again.

I know I don't post often in here, and lately it has been for some prayers
and good thoughts. I love you all for the way you pour out the healing help
for anyone in here. It is so special. I believe that your outpouring of
thoughts and prayers are the only thing that holds me together some days.

I am working on a homespun quilt, a simple 9-patch kind of design. Nothing
fancy. Nothing complicated. But it is something soothing. If I didn't keep
on lurking in here as often as I can, I am not sure I would have bothered
keeping my fabrics and such, let alone get back to putting those little bits
back into bigger bits.
I have my serious doubts about actually finishing my WIPs right now, but at
least I can slowly muddle along.

So as long as my life is such a mess of stress and etc. I am more than glad
you all are here sharing wisdom and funnies and help. I just wanted you to
know how much you are appreciated!!!!!

Good for you KK
It is so good to hear you feeling a little more encouraged, with all
that is going on. Keep that little light burning as a beacon to you.
However far away it will keep you heading 'through'.

Oh yes -nothing like a little sewing session to put life back in
perspective. My DH once watched me for a while, during a period of life
chaos. The entire scrap basket was upended on the table, and I was producing
little scrap blocks out of it. He had an "aha" moment and said, "Now I
understand. Putting scraps together gives you a sense of control." (Only
took him about 32 years to realize this :-)

Good for you! I hope things will begin to settle down for you quite soon
now, but in the meantime it's good to find (rediscover?) an outlet that
helps in coping.

I know exactly what you mean. It's amazing how soothing
fabric/sewing/daydreaming about what might like to go with what can be. I've
spent entire afternoons making a mess of my stash, not sewing or cutting an
inch, but feeling so renewed afterwards.

Hugs to you.
