Calming Blue

This has been a very trying week for me. My stress level is at an all time high.

I've heard it said that women instinctively seek out water sources when they need to relax and calm down. This can mean a trip to the seashore or even just a bubble bath.

Having another adult in the home to help me has been a lifesaver.

Sewing and designing also helps to sooth my soul. I've decided that this month I will design a gown for my indispensable mother. She wants red. She's never felt the power that a red dress brings.

I've also heard that green is a calming influence. Today the green scraps shuffle their way under my presser foot. Tomorrow I may break out some sashing.

Sounds like a wild and crazy time, eh? Someone remind me to breathe.
