Challenge yourself to learn something new, start an art journal, go on an urban safari with your camera, search your family tree, read a book...something, anything that will inspire and excite you!

I do understand that sometimes we are used to being more productive, but you're still doing quite well! As for why we have slumps, I think sometimes we (or at least I do anyway) fill our to-do list with so many things that once in a while it is just nice to step back and take a break, I think it frees the mind a bit. It always comes back, even if we have to give it a gentle nudge.

You have such a keen sense of color and your creativity is so unique. It amazes me how even the simplest task looks amazing once your needle comes in contact with fabric. I think you are my favorite quilter...yes, I'm sure of it. I use many of your designs as inspiration for my own personal creations because I simply don't have that sense of design that you have. Take a 5 hr. Energy and get your mojo back!!
