Nancy in La., We're a rare breed. I plan more than I sew. Seems there's always something missin'. Sometimes it's the time that's missing. Sometimes I can't find what I'm looking for, bc I "stashed" it away for another time. Sometimes I use a piece for something other than what is was purchased and then it's gone when I need it. YIKES ! :shock: But still, I'm never without a project. I've learned to roll with the punches. :roll:
