Craft Withdrawl

It's a real disease. Craft Withdrawl symptoms include:

-inability to enjoy every day mundane tasks
-extreme longings to compose something from scratch, particularly one that looks beautiful
-craving to complete a project, to gain that crafty satisfaction

These, as well as others symptoms, are normal with Craft Withdrawl. If you, or any loved ones you know are experiencing these symptoms, a suggested remedy is to spend a day with your mom, not worrying about the outside non-crafty world, and sew a beautiful, useful project (i.e. a laptop sleeve!)


3 layers of healing for the top of the sleeve...


3 layers for the bottom.


a patchwork fold-over to complete the remedy for my withdrawl.


Amidst the healing process...


and...Cured!


my laptop will be safe, and I am cured of my Craft Withdrawl!

If you are looking for a similar remedy, check out the full tutorial (CA - Crafters Anonymous, also known as Sew, Mama, Sew) here. Here's the PDF version as well.

Enjoy!
