I would love to spend every day working on craft projects. But I usually get to a point every few months where I avoid my craft area entirely because it has become such a mess. I was at that point this weekend. So I spent a couple hours today filing away new scrapbook papers, storing fabrics I got for my birthday, recycling old magazines, deciding which product catalogs I want to keep (from CHA), and making a nice big pile of stuff to give away.
I also came up with a pile of craft books that I really want to read but haven't had the time. One quilting book, one with quilting stitches I want to learn for applique, another with felt projects (lots of pincushions), two on making books, and one with some great travel scrapbook ideas. Now I just need to find some time...
I also have a new fabric obsession. My husband's grandmother made this pillow and I just recently put it out in our living room. Every time I see it I can't help but think of how that lavender fabric on the top looks just like a hydrangea. I have to find some for my first applique project!
