So I'm trying to change up the way I work on projects. I would like to be more disciplined in the planning stages. Ha! I would like to plan, put it down on paper, try a sample, etc etc
I sat down to do a few samples in one cloth, didn't work. I tried another cloth, didn't work.
Frustration at its best. Here I was trying to do better be more organized, to no avail.
After throwing away the samples and cleaning up my work space, I looked over to the chair and there sat my husbands jeans that he had asked me to patch again. I had put off this chore because I had bigger and better ideas in my head for projects to come. I didn't want to waste my time patching jeans.
But now with nothing in my head that was working the way I wanted it to, I picked up the jeans.
I had patched them before but it didn't hold so now I would patch the inside as well.
I started sewing and weaving by hand and it was so freeing. I went this way and that way. I had no plan just going with the flow. It was freeing.
So here are some pictures of what freeing felt like this weekend.
