Sew Next List - Once in a while when I am fresh out of ideas, I make a list of what I want to sew next. I put it to the left of my machine and make an item or two and then other ideas start flowing and I ignore the rest of the list! It is just to get me going again. After a while, I trash the old lists. Alternately, I sort and straighten fabric till I find something beautiful to work with.

I spend hours looking at designs. Beautiful designs. It has been awhile since I have more things going on, however I still enjoy putting them together in my head.

My list is in my head so things quite frequently disappear from it. I'm much more afraid of being fresh out of ideas!

I do make a list then forget where I put it so I like to browse through my emb files for designs ,something different that hasn't been sewn out before

Well working my list did the trick. Mid-morning, the sun came out after rain and I started doing these little very detailed designs and hand-selecting my own colors and got soooo creative. What fun. (List is set aside.)

I tried that too. But didn't get past the third one - something else came up and I haven't been able to get back to it nearly three years down the track. :-)

My list is a note book the pages get longer and longer with the occasional project crossed off..
