In the wee hours...

Do you ever have such a burst of creativity that you just sew and sew and sew with little regard to the time?  I love those!  Hubs was out of town last night so my usual time triggers were not in place....you know when the game is over and the news comes on or when he switches to the weather channel to check out what the morning will look like?
Spencer in the box made just for the boys.

I was blissfully sewing away in my little spot of heaven all evening after dinner. The quilt I was working on was going together just as I imagined and before I knew it the clock said it was midnight...so I figured I would just work until I got the borders on...

Bazinga!  Next thing I know the clock said 3:00 AM!!  Holy cow!  I got into bed and was not the least bit tired.

I love the quilt but my alarm going off at 7 was not a welcome sound.  Ah the price we pay to feed our creative souls!!!

I would share the photo of the quilt but it is part of my super secret project...stay tuned!

    I know exactly what you are talking about, Linda. I, too, can get to sewing and loose any awareness of time! I, however, have developed arthritis in my neck, so nowadays, my body tells me when it's time to stop sewing (bummer!). I love the sewing place in your picture, and I'm loving your blog! Can't wait to see that super secret quilt!!!!

      Thanks Debbie - I redid my sewing room a couple of years ago and when I walk in the door I just feel happy. :-) My boys like it too LOL.

    Linda, it's been a very long time since my mojo has allowed me to work like that. I can't wait to see what lit that fire for you!

      I hear you Eileen. You just have to go with it when it does hit because you never know when it will leave you. Honestly since I started the Super Secret Project I have been like a drug addict needing a fix...LOL
