Living Passionately — 3 Comments

  1. I enjoyed reading this. I’m afraid I’m in a bit of a slump myself right now so it was apropos. I ask myself, (about me) Is it Seasonal Affective Disorder? Lack of money? Constant pain? Worry about living situation? The Gypsy in me? Loneliness?

    I can make lists on top of lists, on top of those lists! It’s getting the motivation to act on them where I get hung up. Any ideas?

  2. I certainly can appreciate the medical issues and the lack of money; though I refuse to let either impede my passion. Perhaps quilting is at the top of your list (just an example). Without money to buy fabric, I would suggest going to a place that offers free clothing – we have one in a local church where we live. Go through the clothes and find fabrics that you can cut up to make quilts out of. That would be no different than the olden days when women made quilts from flour sacks. This is just one example and I’m sure there are many others. I just get myself in a mindset that I am going to ignore the symptoms of the body and make myself do SOMETHING each day in my sewing room – be it cut out a block, sew a block, bind a quilt, etc. Best of luck to you!

  3. Thanks again Tammom. Yes, I do try to do something everyday. I’m glad I found your site. See my reply to all your great ideas for getting fabric. Those “Gee’s Bend” quilts were too much.
