I'm in a funk ....!

I've been in a funk as of late and cannot seem to shake it out. All that means is that I am not quilting ... at all! I haven't even turned my sewing machine on for the past 2 months!! It's not that I don't have anything to finish ... I'm just in a funk.

What this means is that I've been doing a lot of hand embroidery. Yep, that's my go to work when my mind needs to empty out. I've started this cute little piece - When Witches Fly


You've probably noticed that I've been in a funk for quite some time. One of the problems with that is .... I have a lot of hand embroidery panels that needs to be finished. I either need someone to piece all of my work or I need to get out of this funk! Sigh!

To alleviate the issue, I decided to work on towels. They are already finished, nothing needs to be done except hand embroider a design. It doesn't become, yet, another UFO. What a relief!

So, I stitched up these towels from the pattern Victory Garden.


And ...


I just love how they turned out!

Do you think it would matter if I have a gazillion hand embroidered hand towels? It is my understanding that one can never have too many dish towels! ;)

Thanks for stopping by! Cheers!

Those are adorable towels! And no, you can't have too many towels.

I hope you get out of your funk -- I'm sure the shorter days don't help. Drink more wine LOL!!!

I wondered why there had not been a post from you for q good while. I haven't embroidered a towel in years and years but have always liked them.

You are keeping busy with your hands rather than by machine. It's still being productive, I like to have a variety of things to do....well maybe too many things on the go. Pick one project to finish and you'll get out of your funk. It works for me.
