{Project 365} Day 28: The Sewing Bowl

I had grand plans for celebrating "The Sewing Bowl" this weekend.  How great does that sound - a whole bunch of time spent sewing instead of watching football?!

See all the supplies I had pulled out...pieces to finish a custom doll for a repeat customer, fabrics to cut out a few smaller dolls like the giveaway doll, material for infinity scarves, and fabric for extra custom dolls to be listed in my etsy shop in the future... 
 
A long list of projects... 
 
 
But now, I'm being forced to rename this event "The Sewing Hour" for that pretty much sums up the amount of time I actually spent sewing.
 
I knew the reality of clocking a lot of sewing time was going to be fairly impossible, however, I still had my hopes up.  There is a bit of a battle going on in my heart about choosing a good attitude. 
 
I'm sure I'll be over it soon.  Grin.
 
 
I did get this sweet infinity scarf finished.  It took about one minute to sew it.  Uh-ma-zing, I know!  It is actually a finished scarf I picked up at the thrift store for $1.48.  I simply took the short ends and sewed them together to make a circle.  Voila, infinity scarf!
 
Now it's 10pm and the dining room still covered with all my sewing stuff.  Maybe I'll find some time tomorrow...

I'm with you Kiley - I know Mark is only 5 weeks old but I'm feeling antsy to be back sewing again and it seems like I can only grab a few minutes here and there (and definitely only when Nik is home and it's only happened like twice anyway). So yes, definitely having to keep a watch on my attitude. Sewing Bowl would have been super fun, agreed - way better than the Super Bowl!
