Be active to know the outer.
The two spring from the same source,
All of life is one whole."

It's been a little while since I have visited, but here I am again like a bad penny that keeps coming back..LOL
I have found that I am feeling less and less comfortable spending time on Facebook. I miss the uncomplicated days of getting to know new friends through blogging, so I thought that I would try to spend my more of my time here blogging and reading blogs again.
So in the world of "makers", May is a dedicated month of concentrated making, whether it be sewing, quilting, knitting, etc. Every year on Instagram, I see all of the fun things that people I know both personally and from afar are creating and I love it! I find it so inspirational. This year I thought I would take a little jump into this effort.
Now, I will be lucky to finish a few things, but knowing that I have such a hard time finding clothes that fit correctly, I wanted to concentrate on sewing some new things. Taking it slow and spending more time on quality over quantity and learning new skills. I am always amazed at the people who can consistently crank out both beautiful quality items and doing it quickly. I'm sure that I won't be one of them, at least for a spell for sure.
I'm also going to try to sew with a purpose by trying to create somewhat of a capsule wardrobe to mix and match and commit to keeping and having less. I think it will help create more space in my brain if that makes sense, ha! If nothing else, it will make getting ready for a day or traveling much simpler.
What do you think? Do any of you live with capsule wardrobes?
