I find inspiration by setting goals and dreaming about how far they can go. Whatever you can do right away to get closer to one of those dreamy futures: do it and finish it.
Yes writing articulates the germination of an idea ( it is a fragile little tendril that comes up at first and it needs watering, fertilising and dappled sunlight at first). Sometimes I use an old chalkboard and seeing it in black and white also helps the germination process as you go about the rest of your week. I too want to update my big brown sofa cushions. Would live to see how you go go about yours. Bless you❤
I think it’s good to not always be creative so we can rest the mind and take time to observe the world around us. Often what we observe around us gives us fresh ideas for next creative project. I love the whale 🐳. I’m thinking sewing comfy jumper, tshirt and soft jacket for the fall. Thank you for sharing such inspiring material with us. Your channel is a fav of mine. Happy end of summer.
I love that you write out and draw what you plan to sew, given specific fabrics in mind. Looking forward to see some of your planned projects come to life! Where can I find the large paper pad?
Here's the same pad I use: junehomesupply.com/products/ito-bindery-drawing-pad/?epik=dj0yJnU9V3BldF84WGVMLTZyNHg1Vmo0c0ZvRkpubHlERVFfX3omcD0wJm49ZVdiUk85NmVpQXlxWnR1YUhrdS0zZyZ0PUFBQUFBR1RhbTg4&variant=43812265820372 :)
Totally relate to being in a creative funk! It happens all the time. Two things that help me feel motivated again: (1) finding and finishing an old forgotten project (2) thinking about something practical that I need, and figuring out how to make a creative project out of that. Hope that helps. Your videos are also very motivating for me, so thank you!
Adorable whale 🥰. I usually get stuck at the beginning of a project because the getting started steps can seem tedious to me. So I give myself the smallest of goals to get started. I want to get started on a blouse for myself and have been procrastinating. So the goal today was just to take my measurements and compare to the pattern. Eventually I get to the fun part and then it's hard to stop 😊. Thank you for the video!
Watching you sew is always relaxing and inspiring. Thanks for your videos
Aw thank you for watching! I'm glad that they are inspiring in some way :)

Oh thank you, Rina! I got it at my favorite local shop, Jenkins and Co! I'll have to see if I can find it online :)

I think you're right on track -- setting small tiny wins to help build that momentum is key!
