Project 52 | Consuming | Week 8

Motherhood is

consuming.

time. energy. focus. love.

but every mother needs an outlet.

and Nina is mine.




Sewing is my escape. It's my 'me' time. I create something useful, adorable, practical from scraps of nothing. I think while I sew. I process my day, my life, my feelings. 

Lately, life has been too overwhelming and painful, and I don't want to *think*... so I lost my sewing for a while. I couldn't sit and create while in my haze.


But a few weeks later, the irresistible itch always comes back.
Nina and I find something to make, and life seems to fall back into balance.


What's your escape?
