April's WOOFA Finishes

April was not a good month for me. I spent half of it hanging out in the basement because I caught a cold and I didn't want to spread it to Jeff, just in case it was coronavirus. The isolation crashed my momentum for reupholstering the living room furniture in April. When my life recovered, I had a hard time picking up the project again.

Finally, I decided to shift gears to work on smaller, quicker projects. I spent a couple days making a pile of fabric face masks to give away to friends. I didn't have them all finished at once, so I didn't take a picture of the pile of them.

Then I spent four days making two dresses for Jeff's stuffed animal.
Then I spent a few days making placemats.
I plan to pick up the upholstery project again and finish it in May. I'm tired of my living room being a disaster.

  2. It's hard to feel motivated when energy is lacking. Give yourself a break, knowing that it's a new month, your health is restored and you will knock it outta the park! ;0D
