WIP, what's that?

No works in progress this week. I've worked on some things, but meh. After 7 days off of work I was wore out when I went back to work and really just wanted to sleep when I got home. Then fall came and smacked me on the back of the head without warning and I've been in a little bit of a funk and stressed out about financial things. Not a lot of motivation to get any creating done. I feel kind of bad about it too. I might kind of need the break from creating and relax a little bit. It's just hard when there is a lot I WANT to do and a lot I NEED to do.

Anywho, luvin the mommy hood is hosting a little crafty getting to know you link up and I thought, well...why not. So here we go:
  • i'm longing to make "the washi dress by rae" right now.
  • i want to try "crocheting" with "torn sheets" yarn.
  • i wish i could sew with some "chicopee" fabric
  • i dream of making "my future children quilts and clothing".
  • i keep track of my ideas by "writing them on bits of paper and in notebooks".
  • i'm inspired by "everything around me".
  • i would love to meet "blank" in person.
  • my favorite fiber is "cotton".
  • i like to sew with "cotton".
  • my favorite color is "red and grey and white".
  • i rock at "crocheting".
  • i would like to learn how to make "clothing for busty and curvy women like myself".
  • i like to listen to "the tv or music" while I "create".
  • i bring "books" everywhere.
  • my favorite thing to "sew" is "pillow covers".
  • my favorite thing to "crochet" is "cowls".
  • my crafting space is "not big enough".
  • if i had my own crafting room it would be "organized and inspiring".
  • i sew with a "brother".
  • i like to "create" "new cowls".
  • i can never get enough "fabric".
  • i adore "color photos".
  • i also enjoy "reading" and "baking" and "cooking".
  • i like to fill my shelves with "fabric, yarn, books and other craft supplies".
  • i create the best when i'm "inspired".
  • i am currently excited for "nothing at the moment, i'm on a fabric freeze".
  • right now i am "working on filling up my shop and finishing up an order".
  • i love to watch "How I Met Your Mother & Two Broke Girls" while creating.
  • my guilty pleasure when it comes to creating is "nothing".
  • my current favorite music crush to listen to while creating is "au revoir simone".
And there you have it. Hopefully this weekend I'll get back in the groove and start doing some creating. I've got plenty of fabric cut and ready to go, I just need the inspiration and motivation. Send some ju ju my way maybe?

I totally understand being in a funk! I was in one all summer. Hope it passes for you soon!

I have the same this week! So much work - like very long hours, and it is not that I a not creative, but sometimes you just need to prioritise. Sometimes a break is good for regenerating ideas and you have a long list to get inspired from!
