Creative Slump

Have been in a creative slump...haven't even sat in my sewing room, in fact the last time I went in there was over a month ago when looking for a pair scissors. I have lots of ideas scribbled down, have pages dog earred in my Quilting Arts magazines with techniques I want to try...just missing the desire, the want. I look around the house and think...I need to clean, I need to go through closets, I need to do this or do that. I want to redo my kitchen...but dread the mess, the spending of money...so what do I do...I sit and think of all the things I want to do. I don't think its a depression thing, its more like a lazy thing. I am hoping that soon something will light a fire under me and get me started...a force is definitely needed...am hoping it occurs soon. I think that if I can get started again, I will feel better physically...you know a body moving is so much better than a body just sitting...It has always been in the past that if I put something down in the blog it helps me to create. Let's hope that still works.

Another thing that works for me is a practice quilt. You know something like a quilt as you go mindless kind of thing. The main thing is you are back working with fabric and not thinking about what you need to do.
