Time to stop procrastinating....

Now that the project commitment has been met I want to get on with other ideas I have floating around in my head. The trouble is though that I have a workshop full of half finished ideas that floated in to my head and then floated out again, so, I decided today that I will finish one half started idea for each new idea that I want to get going with. Sounds disciplined eh? We'll see.

I got off to a good start by turning my first attempt at machine embroidery into the bag I planned it for. This was all scraps and donated fabrics so the only outlay was time . As a learning curve it was a great exercise and I made a few mistakes I know I won't repeat the next time. Next time? Yes, there will be a next time. I like this idea a lot and can see bags adorned with quirky birds, beetles, gloves, shoes and other odd things. Now all I need to do is improve my embroidery skills - hmm, is that a half finished idea or a new one?
