I used to be able to do things very quickly - knit, sew, crochet, etc.
Thought nothing of coming home with a piece of fabric at 6pm and going out
in the finished garment at 8pm. But there can come a time when you are no
longer able to do things quickly, if at all, or have to modify how you do
them, or even do something totally different to satisfy your creative needs.
When that happens, you already have to be content with the finished object
not being all important, so you can continue to enjoy. Speed definitely
becomes of little importance so you can still be happy doing what you enjoy.
Fortunately, I'm happy with the process, no matter how long it takes.
Thanks to all of you who helped me get over being a wimp about
self-administered injections, the treatment seems to be working well and the
amount (and speed) of lacemaking I can do again has improved considerably. I
might actually finish the Willow Pattern plate featured in an edition of the
UK Lace Guild magazine that I've been working on for nearly a year.
