It's Friday again, my most favorite day of the week. I know I've said this before, but the thing I like best about Fridays is the anticipation of the weekend ahead, a weekend filled with endless possibility. Will I clean my house? Will we go out to eat? Will I have time to sew? Will I get the chance to sleep in? Who knows - all of that or none of it may happen! No matter what happens, I know that I'll get the chance to just be.
One thing I do hope for is some sewing time. That picture above is my current WIP. Never mind that I have quite a few projects that I should be working on, this is what I came up with yesterday. It all started with spotting a cute bag in Target. I liked the idea of the bag, but not the size, the shape, or the proportions. So I played around and came up with my own pattern. I think this is going to be too small, but I can always enlarge it, this is only my first run. When I get these ideas I get kind of obsessed with them. This is all I thought about all day long! After cutting out the bag I decided that I needed to do some tweaking, so it is definitely still a work-in-progress. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have it all figured out.
Besides being grateful that today is my favorite day, here are a few more things that I am grateful for:
- the March issue of Country Living, the women entrepreneurs issue, featuring "Idea Notebook" on the back
- lunch with friends
- my body's desire for healthy foods
- more weight loss (10 lbs as of this morning)
- pretty fabric
- sunshine and warmer weather
- that this week's Top Design was better than last week
- my blogging buddies (thanks for the Valentine card Elizabeth!)
Happy Weekend!
