Floral Fun

Saturday became a self-care and sewing day! I rose early, took my car to the wash, cut my hair, bought flowers, wine, and fresh ingredients to make a nice dinner for two. When I began to sew, I was really thrown off because I had forgotten my system. The dress wasn't fitting right, and I didn’t have my trusty wrist cushion.

I began cutting away lace pieces and shifting the dress around until there was a knock on the door, and guess what arrived? My black and gold pin cushion all the way from England. In time, I found my familiar footing, and it began to make sense how to create the dress. I started securing panels of lace in a more permanent place with invisible thread.

I set the alarm to ring so I wouldn't sew all night. Instead, I went for a lovely, long walk in the forest with my dog. When I returned, I finished folding the laundry and began cooking. I’m going to have a healthier relationship with my dreams, where it is a beautiful and happy creative process. What can you do today to infuse your dreams with wellness?

My pin cushion had not arrived yet, but look closely at my sweet little owl and turtle cushion.

Not sure which I might work on next, but this time I am not going to work on a few dresses at a time. I am going to finish one before moving on to the next.
