Förra veckan hade jag en liten ”dipp”. Ingen sylust alls. Lite konstig känsla, när man syr så mycket som jag gör. Vad hände?
Last week I was a little down. I had lost my mojo for sewing. Felt a bit strange, since I always sew a lot. Don´t know what happened?
Nåja, lite har jag i alla fall sytt. Mest på kvällarna framför TV:n. Jag har sytt på broderiet One year of stitches. Några stygn varje kväll. #1year0fstitches
Well, some small efforts have been done. Mostly in the evenings, when watching TV. I´ve been stitching on the embroidery One Year Of Stitches. A few stitches every evening. #1yearofstitches
Jag har börjat sy på februaris cirkel, Rainbow SAL, design Connie Gee.
I have started stitching on the circle for February, Rainbow SAL, design Connie Gee.
Ibland har jag stickat några varv på ”Gunillas sjal”. Började sticka på sjalen för två år sedan och känner att det börjar bli dags att bli klar med den 🙂
Some times I´ve been knitting on ”Gunillas´ shawl”. Started knitting on it two years ago and now I think it´s getting time to finish it 🙂
Ja, förra veckan var alltså ingen höjdare. För att få lite (mycket) inspiration för denna vecka länkar jag till EvaJ, måndag, Visa och berätta. Dessutom vill jag påminna om att på onsdag är det den 15:e och alltså dags för SCRAP HAPPY DAY!!!!!
So, you see, last week wasn´t that great. To get some (much) inspiration for this week I link to EvaJ, Monday, Show and Tell. I´ll also remind you of Wednesday. It´s the 15th and time for SCRAP HAPPY DAY!!!!!
It seems as if lots of people had trouble being inspired to do creative things just now. It’s just cold, dark post-Christmas blues, I think. You’ve done some beautiful embroidery, and that knitting looks wonderful, so it hasn’t been a total loss. See you on ScrapHappy Day!

I think it’s quite normal during the darker winter days. Today the sun was shining again and everything was a lot easier. 🙂

Yes, you are so right! The sun is shining here as well and everything is so much better!

Dippar bör vi nog ha för att sen uppskatta vår hobby än mer, eller omväxling förnöjer! Den sjalen ser ut att bli väldigt fin!
Kram

Tack! Nu när solen skiner, känns det genast mycket bättre!

I know what you mean about losing your mojo for sewing. I’ve been through that recently too. I love the colors you’ve used for your Year of Stitches, and the shawl looks luscious – you need to finish that! See you on ScrapHappyDay!

I wasn´t sure I could do free stitching, but this far it has turned out great!

Ja, sånn er det i blandt at sylysten blir borte. Men du har da både brodert og strikket, så noe er blitt gjort hos deg. Kjenner meg igjen med sylysten som plutselig er borte. Her gikk det trått i januar, men nå går det litt bedre. 🙂

Nu skiner solen, så nu känns det mycket bättre!

I’m sure your stitching juices will come back – I think it is just that time of the year! You still achieved quite a lot!
GillaGilla
Thank you! Now the sun is shining and suddenly everything feels much better!

Stitching, knitting, embroidery….seems like you still did a bunch 😊 maybe the let down after finishing a big project?
GillaGilla
Yes, could be so!
