Yep–I’m easily distracted. I went down to my studio today with one objective–to get stuff organized for a class I’m teaching next week.
Distraction 1: I had to move this piece and I haven’t been satisfied with it since I finished it. So I thought I would just take it off the stretchers before I got busy on the class stuff.
As I set it down to open the drawer with my tools, my eyes fell on these little pieces.
Distraction 2:
I just HAD to do something with them, right now! I had originally intended them to be part of a single piece, but today they looked like they wanted to stand up on their own.
And they wanted wool…
I got them all laid out the way I wanted and got started stitching on one.
Planning on some beads at least and maybe some embroidery, too.
They are all basically the same idea/series and look good on their own. But they also look good together.
And I still don’t have my stuff ready for the class! I’ll make that the objective for tomorrow and hope I don’t get distracted!

Distraction is always a real possibility when I head to the studio. It’s mostly all good, though!

When you don’t have to create for a class or a theme or any other constraint but fun, it’s wonderfully fun!

It’s easier, I think, when you don’t have any pre-conceived notions!
