Reply To: Finding time to fit in sewing projects

aw, thank you for the kind words! 🙂 I don’t know how to answer this question because I’m still looking for time. I have always been a big planner in that I would spend all day at work, sitting at my desk, dreaming about all the things I would make when I got off. Then, by the time I got home and ate dinner…well, watching something on tv was much more appealing. I think the main thing is to not be too hard on yourself. Life can be so crazy these days and there’s so many things to distract us. And I always believe that sewing should be a relaxing hobby that can remove us from the crazy life. If you’re really having trouble finding time in just normal everyday living, I suggest maybe planning a sewing vacation for yourself. I’m going on vacation myself to an old family cabin soon. There’s no tv, no internet, and the phone reception is pretty shoddy so I can bring projects that have had on my dream list and just spend some quality time with my sewing machine. You don’t actually have to leave home, but just taking a couple days off for you to sew will probably be one of the most relaxing vacations you can spend. Good luck!
