Making it happen

April 24, 2008

I started the day with the idea that I would finish.  I’ve had a couple of open projects, and a customer who said, ” people think I’m crazy that I want to finish a project before I start another. ”  (Excuse to not buy more fabric-and I hear them all- or obsessive?)  Well, I know how good it feels to complete things, even though it doesn’t always go the way I plan.  Things interrupt the project constantly, and even the project rejects completion unless I fight back.  This is what happened today with the zipper I last-minute-decided to add to my bag. Great idea, but a whole other engineering issue delayed completion. Finished the bag – no handles, but it’s coming along (yoyo embellishment).  The apron was another story.   The story really is: as fast as I CAN work, sometimes I should just SLOW DOWN.   More coming…
