I have sewing projects stacking up like planes waiting to land on a rainy day, but almost none of the projects are calling to me. Which doesn't mean they don't need doing, I just need to get a little discipline, sit down in the workroom for a few hours and start knocking this stuff out.
What needs doing: the Burda turtleneck - I need solid colors, and I have chocolate brown, teal and a nice mid-range green that would work. Once they're cut, they take no time at all. An evening's work for all 3.
My TNT work pants in a nice deep brown plaid with faint lines of teal and green. Would work with all 3 non-existent but planned turtlenecks, a few of my sweaters and the fabric is pre-washed and bagged with the pattern. This also would take no more than an evening to complete.

And of course, the craft show is just around the corner. You would think that avoidance of craft show items would make me start sewing for me, or even possibly sewing for Mario, but he has more shirts now than he has closet space, and oh, right, I still haven't started in on his jeans, although I have at least located the fabric and all the notions and thread that I need.
Anybody got any mojo they're not using?

One of the best lines ever! Hope you're doing ok during Sandy.
I am afraid my sewing mojo has been so low that I actually participated in October - Knitting Month instead of doing any sewing. Good luck with finding your mojo.
