I love this thread (pardon the pun), and the colours in your creative projects are gorgeous.
@JenD your title “slow down project” resonated - just yesterday I was walking to the beach for a swim and motivated to take a photo of the sign on the path (I’ll include it) - aside from the spectacular colour of the sky, cliffs and water I decided “slow” (but steady) needs to be my 2024 mantra.
My fingertips have been a bit numb but when I am finished with the current treatment I think getting the sewing machine out will be both a pleasure and great OT.
