My story is similar to WMTTeach. I never had a slump. Stuck at home, I also pulled statsh. I made hundreds of masks to give to neighbors and scrub caps for out local hospital workers. After that I jumped into my very long list of projects either new or started and not finished. I completed several but have many left to complete. Now that I am back to work at the quilt shop, I have been busy making class and shop samples but still find time to work on completing a few of my own.
I did slow down a bit while taking care of my failing father. But sewing is my therapy and my hubby would often tell me to go spend some time with my machine when my sister was taking care of dad. He also kept the home front clean, cooked and did laundry to allow me time with my dad and my machine. He is a keeper!
Stitchnripper, I am so sorry to learn about your son. Sending hugs and warm thoughts your way.
