    Oh my goodness - these are so pretty and you make it look really easy! I've been sewing since I was 12 and retired 3 wks ago after 52 yrs of customer service jobs. While I worked full time, I didn't have time to do much in my sewing room, but tried to keep it straightened and organized. Now that I'm retired, I've lost my sewjo and most times, I just pass through to the laundry room. My DH is very supportive and he retired 1 yr ago after 54 yrs. I really want to sew and I have everything I could ever want or need to do that; then today I found you. I believe your quick projects will help me get out of this state of mind that I'm in and will be trying quite a few of them. I've been watching all your videos and truly love them, but the ones that spoke to me today are the quick and easy projects. I especially love the heart pillow cover since my sewing room is done in hearts and I need an apron like the one you made. So, tomorrow, I'll be in my sewing room, thanks to you. I'm excited to get started (again), but will keep watching your videos. Again, thank you sew much for these! 💗

      When I retired I couldn’t find the motivation to return to my sewing even though I love sewing. After some time I realised it was retirement itself that was stopping me, I just couldn’t settle to anything without the routine of a busy job. Finding inspiration in Alisa’s videos was also a kick start for me and gradually I’ve come to enjoy the retirement I had so looked forward to while making beautiful things and as everyone says, there just aren’t enough hours in the day now! Enjoy your retirement and all the wonderful projects ahead!

      @@magscouk Thank you very much for letting me realize that I'm not losing my mind. I believe you are exactly right because I find myself just looking for things to do with my time. I usually end up doing laundry or cleaning because it's necessary. I was raised as the oldest of 7 country kids and Mom always had the same chores to do, every single day. She felt like she'd never get caught up and said: "there's never enough hours in the day to get it all done." She planned to do what she loved, someday, if she ever got the time. But, as we got older and had homes of our own, we realized that all those chores will still be there tomorrow and one day, those kids will not be. The same holds true for taking time to do what you love. Mom passed away before she got her chance, but I don't want to do that. I am 69 years old and the pic in my profile was only taken a few months ago (good genes). I don't feel old and don't want my retirement to change that. I am happy and still healthy enough to enjoy life and I truly want one part of that to be sewing. It's what I love! 💕I hope you enjoy your retirement too!!

      @@brendak5486 Thank you both for these comments! 6th of seven kids raised on a farm here. I too will be retiring soon and figured I would get my sewing/craft room more organized. I just have too much stuff, lol, even though it is pretty organized. I don't get to sew as much as I'd like right now, while working full time, watching 5 grandkids sometimes, visiting, craft shows, and every day life.
      I'm sure I won't dive right in there and do it either.

    What a great series of projects! I have some thick 3" foam arriving today for a kind of bench (actually shelf) cover for my 2 kitties for the front window. Mama Pajama, in particular, is feeling her senior years, and so I'd love to make beds for her and her son, Gracie-George (named for Gracie and George Burns, who were a wife and husband comedian duo who my father really liked). I really appreciate that you have suggested dimensions! I have a pillow that I was going to discard, but I'm going to re-use the filling for kitty beds instead. Thank you, Alisa!

Would you please ido a short lesson on how they are tied? I have watched the tape many times, and your hands just move too fast for these old eyes to figure it out. Thanks again and Happy New Year.

      Yes, absolutely, but in my case I like to do it this way so it does not break up the pattern of the fabric on the back. The gaping does not bother me as you can't see it when the pillow is on the sofa :)
