A Commitment to Daily Sewing

2/15/2016

0 Comments

 
As 2015 drew to a close, I knew I wanted to set an ongoing goal for the new year to encourage myself to create, but it wasn't until January 1 (after I set my goals for the year) that I settled on what that would be.  I decided to commit to a year of daily sewing.  At first, the goal seemed impossible.  I mean, sometimes weeks go by before I get a chance to use my sewing machine.  So I set some guidelines.  My daily sewing could be by machine or by hand.  It could be an entire project from start to finish or just a few stitches.  And, to make myself accountable, I post a progress picture to Instagram every day.  I'm so glad I made the commitment.  As a result, I tried out improvisational piecing, finished a months-long English Paper Piecing project, re-started a stagnant project, and lots more.  I'm a month-and-a-half in and I can't wait to see what else I accomplish.  Here are some of the things I've been working on, or you can check out my #dailysewing posts and more on Instagram.

What are you working on?

    Hi.  My name is Carley.  I love to sew, craft, and create. As a Jane-of all-crafts so to speak, I enjoy sewing, writing, cooking, drawing, photographing.  But the constant thread (if you'll excuse the pun) throughout my weeks is needle arts. 
    I hope you'll join me in
