This is why I can't stand con crunching. I was trying to finish up Fearne before C2E2 however life conspired against me.

This week was VERY productive on the crafting front! I was reminded that sometimes just taking time to think through a problem is still part of being "productive" even if I'm not actively sewing something.

The problem with having other hobbies besides crafting is that once I remember I enjoy them… they take away from my crafting time! Such is life I suppose.

Sometimes a project takes more time than expected and sometimes it takes exactly as much time as you expected. But I have found that very rarely does it take less time than expected.

Did I mash most of my crafting into one day? Maybe…BUT it got done and I'm quite happy with what I was able to do in a day <3

However, my basement office is too cold for me to enjoy being down there. I did manage to brave the chill to get a few things done this week!

If you have followed my posts on Instagram then you'll know that I have been writing about how self-care is an important part of being environmentally friendly. However, I think this could apply to any form of activism.

I am stubbornly continuing with all of my projects this week, including starting my first big cosplay project of the year! It might be happening in fits and starts, but I am making time for crafting. I hope you are, too. Finding moments of joy and rest are so important right now.
