some things never change, but some do

This picture says so much about me and about how I do things.  It seems very staged.  But it's not and that's why it's so funny to me.

We had just finished the basement space and I had moved my crafting stuff into the room.  At the same time, I was sewing curtains for the newly repainted kitchen.  I pulled out the sewing machine, sat it on top of a vintage suitcase from my stash, and pulled up the nearest chair.  A tiny chair built for a 3 year-old.  But I only needed to sew little hems on a few pieces of small fabric.  I would be done in just a few minutes.  And then it hit me.  This is how a crazy person sews.  When I shared the pic on instagram, by sister commented that she wished she had a straight jacket emoji. 

Some things will never change for me.  My crafting will always be impromptu.  I still love sharing what I make and what I find but it is just not that easy to share from a blog.  The instantaneous sharing from phone to picture to instagram is a perfect fit for me (at least for now).   I'm a visual learner and obviously a visual sharer.  

I found an easy way to keep my blog archives without the pesky annual fee and schlepped most of my posts to WordPress.  Of course, I love the picture-centered theme I chose and, if you've stopped by here, please visit me there and say hey.   I have no plans to post to the new space but plans change (sometimes in an instant). ♥
