Sigh...

i finally finished them. i made roman shades for this very nice interior designer lady. (there should be some sort of link there but i don't know that she has a website.)
it was really difficult for me for several reasons. first, i sew clothes. well, not really anymore, but that's what i learned to sew. these were ROMAN SHADES people. second, i don't really love sewing. i've always liked it but i don't love it. third, it was a process that magnified some of my greatest flaws.

i stressed so much on being so perfect about the whole thing. i tried to get every stitch just right. every time i looked at the fabric something cringed with the thought of time consuming attempts at perfection. this is why i stopped sewing things that had set deadlines. it all together, pulls me apart.

but now its all over. and i can breath. and get back to over thinking and stressing out about other stuff. i should have taken pictures, (i'm kind of a bonehead) hopefully she will email me some like she said she would.

oh and p.s. i'm going to chicago tomorrow (so excited!!) and i'm not even close to being packed, so far in fact that i haven't even pulled down my suitcase.
