where do the ideas for being creative come from?

Village 2

I'm working on that little quilt….. DSC04890

the day has been busy with family visits and tonight I'm just too tired to do anything but watch TV. 

Having been home five days, and running fast I've hit the proverbial wall tonight.

However, there is one thing I would like to address and that is where do the ideas for being creative come from?

I've been blessed with a creative mind and spirit.

I am powerless to put a hold on it, sometimes it's a lonely place, sometimes it's an exiting place.
I try to finish one project before going on to another, but that doesn't always work, the mind is in overload at times.

I have a compulsive urge  to put the ideas down on paper or on the computer, the small book in my bag is jammed full of ideas…just like the project I've shared in the past few days.

Lonely, because no one else can share in the idea until you bring it forth…. then it's an obligation!!!

Powerless,  - it's a passion and takes over my whole being. It's exciting. 

It's a blessing, an honor and a passion…. and I for one, just run with it.

    Running with ideas is much safer than running with scissors!
    The row of houses would be perfect for a workshop, just cutting out free hand shapes and then arranging and sticking them down. Add drapplique, embroidery ……… just thought I would mention it in case you run out of ideas.
