My creative space

I have a market to sew bags for, two job applications to write, a choir blog to update and a work lunch to cook for tomorrow, but as the Queen of Procrastination, it is my duty to inform you that nothing...

Shawl

.. nothing ...



...beats crocheting when you're stressed to the hilt.

See Kirsty for more creative spaces.

    Amen! Although for me it wouldn't be crocheting as such. I always find its fun to put things that you actually want to do on the list, then you have the joy of doing something and crossing it off. Although it doesn't help with all the other stff that needs to get done ...
    Lovely, lovely piece though!

    Something very soothing about working with yarn isn't there? For me it's knitting. Good luck with your market makes and lunch cooking!

    There's nothing like a little procrastination to really light the fire under you. :) Lovely work!

    Wow that's a great colour scheme in the first piece. I'm glad retreating into your creative outlet provides a haven from stress. I on the other hand can't paint when I'm stressed and I would really like to be painting instead of stressed this afternoon!
