Hello, friends! Happy 2020! It’s been a minute since I posted here. Mostly because of the holidays. And life. And also because I haven’t been in my sewing space much these past few months. But instead, I have been allocating my creative time to working hard behind-the-scenes to build FeelGood Fibers into the kind of creative community you’d want to be a part of when it launches on February 2nd.
It’s a funny thing. The concept of FeelGood Fibers came from my love of sewing. Sewing is something I love. I love the process of creating, I love this incredible community, and I love the opportunity to constantly challenge myself. I started working on this idea in order to share this love with more people. Yet, ironically, as I’ve been developing this idea, I find myself having less and less time doing the original thing that I love. Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily. Just new and evolving. A little bit scary. A lot bit exciting. And 100% challenging myself in new ways.
What that means for you is that I don’t have the photos of works-in-progress to share with you on Instagram or any new tips or tricks to post. However, please don’t take my lack of posting content as a sign of being disengaged. If anything, I’ve been following along even closer with you, watching your progress and cheering your successes. I’m also right there alongside you, struggling to find that creative time we desperately desire, looking for tips that will keep us more organized, and becoming better informed on how to live more intentional creative lives.
So what is FeelGood Fibers? FeelGood Fibers will be a marketplace for the exchange of pre-loved fabrics. It will be a place to help you destash, make more creative space for things you love, and help you find out-of-print fabrics and secondhand fabrics at a reasonable rate.
But the larger goal and the heart and soul of FeelGood Fibers is meant to be a community for the exchange of ideas. While I may be the one initially drawing the illustrations, creating the content, and curating the playlists — the hope is that eventually, you, too, will be bringing your ideas to FeelGood Fibers to share with the community. We’d love to hear playlists you create too. To see the illustrations that live inside of you. And to learn from you, too, on how to live a more sustainable and intentional life.
We ALL thrive more from a vibrant community that teaches, supports and holds space for one another. This has been my guiding vision and dream for this place that we are creating. We welcome you and hope you’ll join us!
