Artist Block can happen for many different reason. I struggle with artist block in this next section something fierce. As many know I work between two to three jobs and have just gotten a new kitten, and while this takes some time away from creating I have not let this stop me. 

No where I have hit artist block in our sampler is the alphabet and charting the stitches. While stitching comes easy the computer and stitching programs don not and I am teaching myself as I go. As for the alphabet I had one I loved and was half way through charting it when I discovered that it would be way to be big for our size fabric. (So I will just have to find a new alphabet and save this one for my next design. 

​So something is better than nothing.
