Time to Sew ... Why being a Sewing List Stickler is like wearing Creative Handcuffs
Madison Cardigan by @StyleSewMe Versatile and Cosy
The important questions to ask are…
When did I make this list?
Are the items on my list still applicable to my Lifestyle, Current Body Size, Hair Colour, Work Situation, and Current Style Needs?
Chains be broken

Change your list!
You have changed but the list has not.
Why is the list so long?
Is the list stopping desire?
Maybe the list needs to be changed to Garments that ARE: Interesting, Fun, Wearable & More YOU
Times change & so do you
Ruts are predictable but let’s not get stuck in one now.

Vogue Pattern 1552 Sandra Betzina A knit dress that is so forgiving
A couple of days ago I finally made @stylesewme Madison Cardigan
I loved it at first sight when I saw it on a post @sewover50
I got that pattern and it was on the backburner
Why??
“Must-do” instead of “want-to-do”
Naomi Jumpsuit pattern @StyleSewMe I can’t believe I’m wearing a Jumpsuit!
Is it wrong to make "want-to-dos" before "should-dos"?
Who made these rules & why are we obeying?
Imagine making "want-to dos" and wearing our Memades with joy and feeling free of the self-inflicted list
The Madison Cardigan was one of these garments ...
When I put that cardigan on I felt alive, excited and reckless yes reckless
My list is long sooooo long that I don't expect to ever finish it! I believe life is shorter than I think it is. Sometimes I'm reckless enough to jump the numbered list that looks logical and skip to dessert sewing.

Cut into the line
Jump your own queue
Maybe even scratch off a few of those unexciting projects ..for good
Go on live dangerously and sew some fun things just for you. Have fun and enjoy yourself while you're at it. You may find it easier to find time to do what you love .. be selfish sometimes ... It's fun
If Your list is keeping you from sewing why not try Jumping your own queue?
Now is the time to Sew for the Love of it
Put a smile on your face and put a skip in your step ... Even if it's just to the driveway for a photo.
