Feeling uninspired

If it weren't for the bit of daily and weekly stitching that I do, I would have nothing to share. I've been lacking in motivation the past couple of weeks. I've had some ideas for projects and have even gotten out what I would need to get started, but end up putting everything away and doing nothing. Actually I've been on the computer doing jig zone puzzles and solitaire, not a good use of time!

SAQA has a call out for work using repurposed materials called Upcycle, I immediately thought of three different things that I have that could be used and at various times have gotten the stuff out, but nothing seems to be jelling into a complete idea. Maybe I just need more time to work it through.

    Your stitching is beautiful! The before and after picture are inspiring to me - I have some of the "before" ones and now I am thinking I can move them forward. Thanks.

      Thanks Carol, it took me awhile to figure out how to enhance them, I'm sure it will work for you also.

    You would think all this glorious weather would inspire creativity. I wonder if it doesn't inspire truancy. Remember staring longly outside during the final month of school when you were young? Yet for someone who believes her muse has gone silent, you still manage to be both productive and creative. It is fascinating to see where your daily stitching takes you.

      Thanks Gwyned, I think if I didn't have my weekly and daily stitching I would definitely be depressed. I do remember those school days, even though they were over half a century ago!
