✨humbled & grateful✨
I wasn’t sure what to expect after my last post. I was pretty scared that there would be some negative responses, but all I feel is love and support from this community.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you for sharing, liking, commenting, and buying something on my website. Thank you for your kind words. For the first time in a long time I’m feeling hopeful, even though everything is still uncertain. Things are shifting and I’m feeling inspired to make and to teach.
The quote from the first slide is from the book Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and I’ve been thinking about it so much. I’ve been fearful for so much of my life, for so many reasons. As I’m getting older and learning more about myself, I’m leaning much more into curiosity. I’m not finished this piece, but so far I’ve appliquéd the quote onto fabric that I naturally dyed with madder, and screen printed with a crystal/gem pattern I designed.
The rest of the slides are images from our little home.
I can’t wait to pack up orders and mail out thank you notes and make more cute things.
Thank you. I appreciate you so much.
