Finding Time and Motivation

Well, the sewing machine is on the table and I've been looking through blogs and patterns and I'm stuck for what to do next!I do have some mending to do, but that isn't very exciting. I do need to get started on some christmas presents, and also want to try some basic tiered skirts and simple boys shorts. It doesn't help that it has been raining for weeks and there is washing strewn from one end of the house to the other!
