Resolution Totals September 2013

Is it really October already? The year is almost over!  That sure went by fast. 
Things have been pretty busy on the home front the last 2 weeks.  I had finals for school, offered to watch a 9 mo. old for a few days, had a sick child, doctor's appointments, my sickness, etc.  I feel so stressed when I can't sew.  I did get a few minor things sewn over this last week and also totally re-arranged my sewing room.  That made me feel  a bit better. Now I can see all my fabrics and I'm ready to tackle some fall sewing in October.  But lets look at a recap of September's bleak numbers. 

In keeping up with my sewing resolutions for this year I plan on doing a tally-type thing on the first of each month regarding the prior month to keep me on track for the year!

  3. Keeping a tally of what you sew really is a great way to feel better about how much you sew! I always feel the same way: "I didn't get anything done" to ”Oh, I did sew a lot of things after all."
    Maybe I should tally up the load of laundry I do?

    1. Thanks Joy! It does make me feel better when I look back each month. I get to the end and I think I haven't done anything productive until I do this tally. :) It makes it so much sweeter! I really like your RTW vs. handmade pie chart though. I'm only at 20% handmade so far.

      I think tallying the laundry would be shocking! lol. I can' t imagine how many loads you do - we have about 6 per week with us 4.
