Pillow Madness


I learned something about myself today:

I do not find sewing fun or enjoyable.

At all.

Just think . . . all these years I had convinced myself that I enjoyed doing it.  That of course it was a hobby I wanted to spend my time and energy on.

And today the heavens opened and I see with new eyes:

Sewing projects are W.o.r.k.

With a capital "W".


No thank you!

I already have enough work in my life.


I've been sewing these little pillows for birthday presents for the last couple years.  They're cute and fun and the kids love them!

Today I finished pillow #27.

I think I'm done.


I know there are things in life we must do even if we don't want to.

But sewing pillows, I learned, is not one of them.


Hallelujah!
