Even more procrastinating with starting new project

On By Laura PetersLeave a comment

Ok woke up early didn’t want to wake up my child as early so I made Christmas ornaments. I painted them yesterday but today I decorated them. I used embossing powder and tired using blow dryer to melt but didn’t work so had to put in oven. Which really sucks it was only reason I bought a blow dryer. So that’s lame. Also added some glitter and they came out adorable.

After that I decided to make blueberry jam and it came out so good. I did cut out padding for the placemats I need to start so there’s that. Yet at same time I decided I needed to make four sets of four so 16 placemats before Christmas.

Jam cooking

Then I decided to make quesdillas from scratch including the flour tortillas and the jalapeno sauce. But they came out delicous also. My daughter loved them of course my significant other was like there ok. But ignore him the mans idea of good food is peanut butter and jelly or cereal for dinner. Yeah like seriously and he’s 33 I don’t understand it either eats like five year old.

Tomorrow hoping to make at least one placemat mostly to get idea of what I want it to look like. So wish me luck.

Finished some things

I’m so glad was busy all day. And I did a lot of sewing yesterday and I got alot done. I made my niece two eye mask for her birthday.

I made my other niece some pants and tested a shirt pattern that I made out of a old shirt I had.

Used an old shirt so wouldn’t have to waste fabric if it didn’t fit

I made my daughter some pants as well and a pajama pants and jammy dress.

Now they have matching pants

I also made a pair of jammy pants for myself. It was the first time I made anything for myself. I make lots of things but usually for other people. I sew for my daughter. Scrapbook and make jewelry for my mother in-law. Cook for my significant other. Paint things for my daughter’s room.

Im going to start shirt for my daughter with another old shirt of mine. Really got to get on makeup gift bags and placemats.

Procrastinate

  1. delay or postpone action; put off doing something.

I am a huge procrastinator. I’m supposed to make eight bags for a wedding shower. I also have to make my mother in law placemats for Christmas. I also randomly volunteered to make my niece pajamas pants and some other pants. On top of that I randomly started making my daughter pajamas. And last thing I volunteered to make some face mask for friends. I am done buying fabric for while and plan on doing this all before end of year. I’m not a fan of new years resolutions but this is my end of year resolution. I am going to make everything I mentioned and yes more cause I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t have a rediculous amount of projects already planned. I’m going to take back my projects and get stuff done. Here come what will probably be a endlessly expanding list of my planned projects for my end of year finisher.

  • Embroider fabric for bags
  • Sew bags
  • Make pj for baby
  • Make pants for baby
  • Finish PJ pants for my girl
  • Sew coat
  • Make placemats
  • Hand sew quilt
  • Make jammy shorts for me
  • Make gingerbread house

I know I’m forgetting so much but this is a start. So I’m going to start but like always i jump around on projects in haphazard way that makes little to no sense. But I’m determined to get things done. So wish me luck and I’ll show what I do.
