I had every plan to spend the entire day in the studio yesterday. I remember reading this on FaceBook some time ago and I decided to share it with you today because sometimes, playing in the studio should has to take backseat to other things.
I realized that, just last week (the day I made the "I Love Quilting" wallet), I spent the entire day, joyfully sewing away - and never put on my clean dress and lipstick! GASP! What was I thinking?

I imagine that it would be wonderful to have a separate, restful area like this to spend those hours catching up on ironing. Yes. I do actually iron Handsome's cotton shirts and a few other garments. I also use homemade cotton napkins every day, and sometimes they need a touch-up, too.

Well, as it was, I had my board and iron set up in our bedroom so that I could listen to the television as I got those things pressed and put away. I finished half of it before I had to quit to finish dinner prep. I'll do the rest before the weekend is over and start the new week with a slate clean enough to get me back into the studio.
What are you planning for the weekend? Will you be working, playing or creating? I'd love to know!
Thank you for mentioning you IRON. I too, do iron, press, sew, quilt and although readily admit to always having a basket half full waiting.. do enjoy this task. I also enjoy only using pressed handmade napkins! We could be related! Thank you for
ReplyDeletemaking my day. Blessings to you.
I don't own a pair of slacks or jeans. So yes, I put on a clean dress or skirt everyday. I also put on makeup everyday. And like the old saying Tuesdays are my ironing day when I spend the day..
ReplyDeleteIroning. It's just the way I am. So, Gasp, maybe I'm a throwback to 1949 but I feel good about the way I do things.
I was just looking at the old article the other day. I won't go into the studio until bed is made and kitchen is clean. No dress or lipstick, but no pjs either. I love that ironing station. I do iron sheets and kitchen towels (the bar towel kind), and I plan on napkins when we move into our new home.
