Going on a Fast
I've decided to go on a fast.
A project-acquisition fast.
Why? Because this is what my creative space looks like right now.
I have so many things I've purchased (including decor, furniture, fabric for clothing, clothing to refashion, etc) that I just haven't gotten around to completing! I've decided it's time to actually start completing those unfinished projects (or get rid of them completely). I'm going to see how far I can get on just the things I have right now. I will allow myself to purchase some small supplies to help me complete the projects such as buttons, thread, glue, paint, sandpaper, etc, but no new projects to work on.
I especially need to get started on using my fabric stash. I got a little addicted shopping Fabric.com's clearance section (with free shipping after $35 and frequent 15-20% off total purchase coupons) that I acquired a lot of great quality fabric for awesome prices. The big obstacle right now is making slopers (basic patterns used to create other designs) custom with my measurements so I can start designing and creating clothing that will fit me perfectly. Being tall has made it very difficult to find anything that will fit me right (so I don't really have many clothes currently available to wear). Also being "cheap" I find myself purchasing ill-fitting clothing on the clearance racks (like cute shirts at Macy's for $5 each!) with the intention of altering it... but then getting around to doing it is another story!
So. No more new projects for me until I work through what I've got. How long will it take me? We shall see!
P.S. Are there any other project
