First time in 3 months

This weekend I sewed and quilted for the first time in about 3 months. I ended up turning off the stitch regulator and it felt like taking off the training wheels! I won't brag about my quilting quality- I definitely had some "toe catchers," but I had those before when I still had the stitch regulator on. My longarm can be fickle but I was able to coax it into cooperation most of the time.
Happy sigh.... It was fun!

I have found, two or three times over the years, that when I take a 'sabbatical', usually more than 6-12 months, away from quilting/sewing (for whatever reason), when I return to the art I am even more skilled than I was when I left it. I have no reason why this is so....it's like the details and skills have time to soak in and develop while I was otherwise occupied!

Maybe as you continue without your SR you'll begin to notice the same thing.![Smile](https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png)
