Muscle Memory

Hello and how are you today?

Are you ready for the new year?  I sure am.  Do you have a list of  goals for the new year?  Do you have a list of projects you would like to complete?  

We are headed to the season of even colder weather.  I know I'll be hibernating in my sewing room for most of the year.  But the early part of the year usually means I get a lot of sewing done.  

I'm working on muscle memory these days.  I worked on small binding projects before the holiday (they were gifts) and eventually tackled binding a lap quilt.  It felt good!  Now I'm working on my embroidery skills.

I have to admit, I was shocked at how clumsy my fingers were when I first endeavored to embroider again.  I ended up repeatedly ripping stitches out and getting disgusted.  I'm over that.  I'm going to start from the beginning and just practice, practice, practice again.  It will come back, I know.

Getting adept at handwork again is about my only big goal for the new year.  Do you have a sewing goal?

Have a safe and happy day!
