Sewing, like many other things comes in waves. We can't always be on a constant high. There has been times I've not even touched the machine, even for mending, for months. But don't worry, you'll get touched by the "bug" again soon. I'm just glad you're ok. Take the passenger's seat for a while, and it won't be long until you're beggin' to get in the drivers seat again.

From Christmas to May of last year I don't think I even walked into my sewing room. I finally got interested in making a small quilt for a friend and then I was back into it.

Whew! Gosh, I thought it was me... I got hooked playing games on the internet and now wanting to get back into sewing...

It has happened to me, and I know it has happened to my sis. Glad you are back.

In the past 4 years my worst time was 2009 spring, when my RA really kicked up, and all I could do was lay on the couch. I was out of the sewing room for about 4 months....no energy. So, yes, I have had that, but not for lack of wanting to. Once in a while I get busy and don't go in for a few days or a whole weekend, but not often.

Welcome back, Bev. I've missed seeing pictures of your "ladies" and other embroidery. I'm with everyone else-get in a funk and nothing interests me. I have really bad seasonal depression (it's lifting now YAY!!) so hope to quit playing Yahtzee and Solitare and start sewing some more. C'mon, Bev, we can do this!!
