My Apron!

Good for you. I understand how bad sciatica can be, and I am really good at procrastinating. I am also pretty good at taking something and making it important, like you just did. Sometimes even the littlest thing can help motivate you and make you feel good. It is not about how long it took you to acoomplish something, what is important is that you accomplished it. So wear that apron with pride and think of it often when you find yourself down or not wanting to finish something. Let that apron remind you that every little bit does eventually add up to a whole. No go put on that apron and get yourself a glass of your favotire beverage and toast your success. Congrats to you and keep it up.

my life is my computer both for a living and pleasure. Some days I am so sad I cannot sit up properly either. I truly understand how you feel about the apron you made. Yes hon, it is an accomplishment. Be thankful that you still do it.

Interesting

I think it is a wonderful accomplishment. You should be proud. Starting a discussion about an apron is not strange at all. I did a discussion about wearing aprons and got way over 100 comments on it. Seems eveyone had something to say about aprons. I love aprons and I wear one in my kitchen all the time

great name, great avatar :) and about the apron, good job! you should take a picture of it and maybe post it here. im glad you don't let your sciatica get the better of you. more projects to come!

I need a apron or two. Maybe I will start making one with that sewing machine I never ever use. I can't sew this is my big problem. Maybe the problem is I have no patience for it?

Good for you! I don't sew at all. I have never gotten into it and probably never will. I was always bored in home economics class in school because I am not into cooking or sewing. I hope you are better soon and are able to sit in front of your sewing machine longer than you do now. My rich aunt bought my mom a sewing machine for her birthday a few years ago and my mom was so excited when she got it. She never found the time to use it though because she is always working. I swear that woman will die working. I am always telling her she needs to rest some before she does kill herself but they need the money real bad. Anyway sorry I got off topic for a second. My mom ended up having to sell her beloved sewing machine to my sister so she could pay one of her bills and she never did get to use it. She had so many plans for it too. I would love to buy her one but I can't afford it like my aunt can. But I'm glad you got your apron done and hope you get more of your projects done as well. :)

I love the feeling I get when I have completed a project. You should be proud of yourself, you made something and you like it. On top of that you fought yourself to keep going. So good job!! Enjoy your apron, good wishes on your next project.

I don't know what kind of sewing machine you have or how you put your feet up but I had this same problem when I was expecting. The cord for my foot pedal was long enough to reach my foot stool. The control wasn't as good until I got used to it but I worked it out. I hope you get some relief from your pain soon and good luck with all your projects!

My grandma knits afgans and it takes her a month or a little more to do one. when she does it she sits in from of the tv but this is diffrent from what you have to do. a couple things i could suggest is do a little at a time and not try to rush. you know what you want to get done so dont add more into that pile until at least half or all is done with. my mom has baby blankets she has wanted to put togeather (you know the ruffels and all ) but only has done one lol. she is one of the biggest procrastinaters i know. but i hope some of my adives helps, good luck and happy sewing!!

I love aprons! they are so handy... congratulations on this milestone. one at a time, dear lady, one at a time.

Okay, I think I told you I can sew! I did try to make an apron once and that didn't come out so well either. How pathetic is that?
