Impatient Vessel

I have been procrastinating in blogging.
The problem with being between creative periods is that writing is hard too.
The problem with being in a creative rush is that writing is not what I want to do.

What I should be doing right now is finishing my Loch Shiel rug hooking.

 As you can see I am done but for the border. I have decided to keep the border very thin and a purply plum colour. I have also changed my mind about putting it on the floor as an actual rug.  It will be a wall hanging.

During my procrastination time we had the living room area painted and I started to put Christmas up.

And I did a few fabric cards using some of the techniques I learned at the November Workshop I took.

 Finishing a project, decorating the house and making small cards are small creative acts but they do keep my brain distracted.
I am keeping myself open and available for the next inspiration. I know it is there just out of reach. I go to bed at night hoping that it will come clear while I sleep.  I start my days out distracting my brain from being frustrated that it is right there but as of yet out of reach.  I will keep on doing little projects for "distraction" and to keep my tools ready to use when Inspiration finally reveals itself.

It is during periods like this that I am aware that I am just a vessel for what ever lurks inside me to be brought to life.

I am an impatient vessel.
