I just have to say that though I don't comment as often as I probably should, I look forward to and enjoy all your posts--and I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND when you don't make one. You are exactly right about the need to simply say No sometimes. We're people, not machines. No apologies necessary for that, ever--and particularly when a Little Person is in the mix. He's a lot more important than the blog, or keeping track of the Me-Made Challenge, or the _____....<br /><br />I love the colors in that Felicity Dress Skirt, by the way. 90% of the time I don't have the space that I need to cut out fabric and set up the sewing machine, but one of these days, when I do, your Bronte and Cressida are on my wish list--and now I'm considering your Felicity, too. :)Anniehttp://hardworkinghandmade.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1921233768935126478.post-41531102221897886992016-06-02T20:23:20.376+12:002016-06-02T20:23:20.376+12:00Jen, just to say that when you have a little one t...Jen, just to say that when you have a little one then staring into space is REALLY IMPORTANT. And if you already know that you can't do everything at the age of 30 you are wiser by far than I was 33 years ago . My afternoon blouses are coming out with the very reluctant sun in England. Hooray!

However, I realised I was putting pressure on myself to sew things that I already had perfectly good versions of (albeit RTW)so that I could say that they were handmade, and that it would be better to focus sewing time on things that I actually needed. So I came out of the month with a different objective than I started with, but it has returned sewing to being fun and less like a chore! I enjoy reading your blog and look forward to seeing your new patterns. x Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00192997967156579697noreply@blogger.com
