  • getting my creative spark back

    After a wild year of school, I think it’s official. I have senioritis. I’m not sure if it’s the gloomy weather or the final month before graduation, but I’m loosing bits of motivation and creativity.

    I’ve been working on little projects here and there to keep myself creating outside of class. I think this has helped my design process.

    So far I’ve made a fabric star garland. It took me a lot longer than I thought. It was fun to just zone out with a show and then see it come together bit by bit.

    The fabric choice wasn’t my favorite, but I wanted to challenge myself to use what I already had. Because of that aspect, each star is filled with even more fabric scraps.

    Not pictured, but I also hand sewed a felt calico critter keychain holder (similar to pic below).

    This is not my image, just added for reference.

    However, I chose to make a blueberry carrier instead of a star.

    What do you do to keep your creative streak?
