Bad Habit

I have a bad habit of buying patterns and books and then never getting around to using them. As they are usually for 'personal use only', I often feel guilty setting aside the time to make something just for me~

Lately I've come across some great patterns and books and couldn't resist...

 My goal is carving out some time to make (one or more of) these this week.I'll post them as I do...I used to get a lot of projects done over the Summer when the kids were home but now, not so much.
Usually I'll buy a pattern first and the fabric later-as in when I get around to buying something just for me~ but this past weekend I actually read the backs of the patterns I want to do, and got most of the supplies for them...

With fabric, I can buy quite a bit and justify using it for the shop, and I usually do...

 I have bought lots of felt lately for?

you'll see soon ; )

Good for you! I always have to mark a make-for-me-day on the calendar officially for there to be a chance I'll go through with it. With a business in sewing, even hemming kids' pants and fixing buttons feels like me-sewing.
