Come sew with me! -> RETREAT
Who knows… seriously, it’s still a mystery to me. I think it works something like this:
See something inspiring.
Think about that thing and file it away for later.
Get inspired enough to commit the time, money and energy to making it.
Enjoy the roller-coaster ride of creating something.
Marvel at the end product, see what lessons I can learn from it and move on to the next adventure.

I found you through Sewvivor…I loved your projects! Now I follow through bloglovin. Thanks for sharing your creative process.
Hi Andi! Thanks so much for the follow and the support. Hope you continue to find things you like on the blog – I have big plans! 😉 🙂 Hope you have a great day! 🙂
Brilliant answers- the inspiration section especially. I am so with you there and wrote something similar when I did the bloghop!
I think Fleetwood Mac said it best when they said “I am who I am”.
I love your thoughts about inspiration! If you’re not having fun, why do it? Thankyou so much for playing along.
Thanks for tagging me. 🙂
I agree wholeheartedly with your inspiration answer.
I think you should never be afraid to admit that the current fashion isn’t your thing, but if it is, tell people how you were inspired by it.
Thanks for choosing me. I will try to do you proud!
I agree – I’m all for giving credit where credit is due for inspiring someone.
Nothing bugs me more then when people pass something off as their original thought/concept – there’s nothing new under the sun and you shouldn’t be afraid to give props to the person/people who helped inspire you. IMHO it smacks of insecurity if you can’t thank someone for inspiring you. /rant
Word.
Love the idea of ‘idea noise’ and blazing your own trail. Thanks for the tag, will get on it for next week. Keep creating, you make cool stuff – must be one of the ‘cool kids’
Ha! I wish. (Actually I don’t really – just want to do what I do and hopefully encourage someone else to get out there and blaze their own trail.)
Looking forward to reading your answers. 🙂
