Hello there! Miss me? Sorry. I didn't mean to take a 3 week bloggy break on my own blog. I just have nothing to show you right now. My sewing mojo has gone out the window. Nothing creative being done over here. Nada. Zip. I DID get my April Birdie Stitches block done. I know... April! I am so behind with that one. But I will finish out the year because I just think those birdies are super cute. I'm working on May's block right now. Almost finished. But that's about it.
I've started a quilt for Amelia out of "Amelia" layer cakes. I think I have 16 blocks completed. I could show you that. Or I can show you the pillow cases that I started 3 weeks ago. I'm making 6 of them. 3 are only half done. The other 3 are just waiting to get started. But I'm not feeling it. On top of all that, my Ottlite bulb burnt itself out and I have to get another one. The corner where I sew and cut in my sewing room can get dark and shadowy. If I don't do anything first thing in the morning, I have a hard time seeing what I'm doing. Never mind doing anything at night. I did find that Lowe's carries the bulbs for a super CHEAP price. Much less than Joann's or even Amazon. But the Lowe's in my area is out of stock. The one near my mom's has 2 of them (according to the computer). I'm headed that way tomorrow so I'll stop and get one if they have it.
That's it here. I hope to get some sewing done next week. Amelia is headed north for most of the week with her grandparents for one last hurrah before school starts. I'll have the week to myself.
Until then...
Enjoy your day!

Well, there you are! I've been wondering about you. Did you get an e-mail from me about a certain book? :-)
ReplyDeleteMissing mojo is not a good thing, Miss Jen, trust me I know. LOL You'll find it again - it's just hiding from you.
Good to know that Lowes has the ott lite bulbs. You'll find that mojo, don't worry!
ReplyDeleteWe all need a break now and then. Don't beat yourself up about it, just know that you'll be back sewing soon! Enjoy your kidless week... maybe you'll be inspired to do something then.
ReplyDeleteBlame it on the heat!
ReplyDeleteI have missed you and been wondering where you were. I can't believe it is almost time for school to start again. Hope you have a great weekend and find your sewing mojo soon.
ReplyDeleteYipeeeeeee...there you are! I was thinking of sending out an SOS. Oh I hate when that MOJO scats out the door...so frustrating. But good to know about Lowe's and the OttLite bulbs. I'll be looking out for your MOJO in case it's vacationing in California.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!!!!!! but I know you have been having fun!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you, but I know what you mean :) I'm sure your mojo will be back in no time!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the mojo! I didn't think I really slacked sewing in the summer, but I really do. Have only done a few little things that I can't show...like for my Santa Swap gifts. Have a fun week...
