Escape From 2021

December 21, 2021December 21, 2021 misstemby4 Comments

Due to the Covid Restrictions still in play while New Zealand battles the Delta Outbreak that started in August, the committee organising the Oamaru Victorian Heritage Celebrations decided it was best to cancel the event for this year.

Another weekend of sewing awaits!
After an incredibly super stressful week I am looking forward to a 3-day-weekend of sewing. I'm so grateful to have a hobby that has therapeutic benefits so not only can I do something I love, but I can also feel calmer while doing it
It's back to work today - and it's going to be an incredibly busy day yet again... hopefully I'll have some energy left to do a bit more sewing tonight. I think that I managed to have a reasonably productive Easter Weekend despite not finishing anything. But, I did make progress on my current project, so I would like to think that is going to give me some extra momentum and motivation to keep going and that I will have something new to share soon...
My Easter Weekend has begun! I'm having a staycation so there will be plenty of time for sewing, which makes me very excited. Hopefully I'll end up being very productive and be able to check off most of my To Do list...
