100 Day Project : completed, in 100 days ( a personal best)

[Not all features of this blogpost will work when viewed as an email, to view it on my website click on the title above]

I blogged about being halfway through my 100 Day Project here and in it I reserved my right to miss a day if I wanted to, my 100 days don’t need to be 100 consecutive days, said I. But as it happens, today is day 100 and I have completed 100 days and I haven’t missed a single day. I only posted photos on every 4th day, so that probably helped, but whatever the reason, I am chuffed with myself. Here are brooches 13-25, with daily progress photos.

Here they are all together, 100 days worth of enjoyment. So pleased I started doing them, they gave me something to focus on through the lockdown when I had lost my sewjo and couldn’t face going into my workshop. I think for me committing to a project that has an end date is a helpful thing , it means I don’t have to think, I just “do”.
I also think that if anything bad ever happened to me , natural disaster, ill health or anything else, I would try and grab some fabric, thread and a needle on my way out the door, for my sanity’s sake!
