~ Stir Crazy and STUFF ~

....or shall I name this posting:

"Stitch Crazy"?

because that's more like what I am lately...

I haven't been out of the house, 

{{ off the compound so-to-speak }}

for 10 days!

no trips to the store, no post office drop-offs.

{by me anyways - my dear hubby has been handling all of that for us} 

since I have been looking like ~ Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

I am at day #10 of treatment and cannot believe how sore my nose is!

a blowtorch would have been a quicker way to do this, me thinks {just kidding of course}.

Anyhoo ~

those that follow me see that I create every day.

Every. Single. Day.

and as I have said numerous times before;

 my needle, thread and hoop are soothing therapy for me...

10 days at home gets me into lots of places in my head where I want to be,

 and some I can't get away from ~ so I try to keep to my Sewing Room

and root through my overflowing baskets. boxes & totes of STUFF

like a wild, red-nosed truffle-pig looking for some elusive treasure that I didn't know I needed.

I never know what I will find in my vast collections of thread, fabric, textiles & trims!

S.T.U.F.F. :

• Something Unidentifiable Filed away for the Future

• Scraps and Trims saved for Uncanny Flights of creative Fancy

• Several Totally Useless Fibers and Fripperies

• Save That Until Feeling creatively Fabulous

• Shove Tug & Unravel all of that Fantastic Fiber

• Some Totally Useless stuff Forever Flowing

{yes, I made all of those up ~ remember the Stir Crazy bit?}

So my sewing room is on it's ...um...ear.

and I don't care one snippet.

 I find it very freeing to be messy {creatively} in this, 

... MY room.

I can leave it, or tidy it up ~ it is my space...

today I have no shame in my game!

 ha!

no guilty thoughts about it.

 

when choosing an area rug for my room,

I knew it should be bold and colorful...

oh, and floral!

but most importantly, 

it should hide well, any thread tails or wool scrap ~

while morphing these into itself to become a whole new type of carpet to tickle my toes upon.

so 

Dust Bunny's ~ do your thing...

Wool Worms, you may procreate & multiply with glee and abandon!

Threads and Fluff & Fabric; you have permission to creep out of your containers.

~ I will not interrupt your process of creating ~

 

Then...soon and

 once again, I will clean it up and begin the whole routine over again ~
