I have fabric and thread but no pattern!!! Been in every local fabric shop and online here in New Zealand and it is sold out!!! All I want to do is sew!!! Im not asking for the pattern just venting :)
I crochet, I knit, I do some counted cross stitch and machine sew. Your reason is exactly why I have more than one thing going on at a time. I make big projects, I make small in between projects, that I can take with me. To fulfill your need to craft, while you wait for the perfect pattern, you will have to find an imperfect pattern, that you could work on just for now.
