If you are creative, you know that there is a true roller coaster of emotions throughout a project.
There's,
Oh, this is so exciting!
and then
What am I thinking?
and
How am I ever going to get this done?!
I hear you. I go through pretty much every emotion throughout a project. There are times when I just don't even want to finish it because I don't like how it's going.
But if you prepare yourself and you know that this is the process, you will be less likely to quit.
In addition to being prepared for the emotional roller coaster, it's important to have good affirmations in place when you start to get negative and start listening to those lies your inner critic says about you and your ability.

I can't believe how beautiful this dress is by @kimdavedesigns 😍
This pattern, Pearl of Great Price in pink, is part of my Jewels fabric collection.
After following @kimdavedesigns here on the 'gram, she was my first choice to design, make and wear my fabric. And she said yes!!!
What a dream it was to work with such a skilled designer!
I love the tutorials as much as the finished product! If you are a sewer wanting to up your pattern making skills, go check out Kim Dave Designs on YouTube. (Link in her bio)

💚Green crush?
🍏I never even liked any color green until about 25 years ago. I say 25 years ago because that was the year I picked sage green for my bridesmaid's dresses.
I'm still happy I went with that color it's still very beautiful to me. I wouldn't wear it now but for the time and looking back, I love it.
🧶Then, it became emerald green about 10 years ago. I just loved it. Velvet and satin in evening wear is always lush and beautiful.
I even created an entire vision board on pinterest with lush emerald greens.
🧵The more I stepped into my confidence, the more green became the it color for me. Not only is green calming and refreshing, but it is also an automatic confidence booster when you wear it.
🥝Do you agree?

You can borrow, wear or fake confidence even if you don't feel it.
Sometimes, you just need a few seconds of courage to take a risk.
Remember to vocalize your success and your affirmations daily. And be sure to write out your success.
Choose to believe that others can't be lying about you.
I would love to connect and get to know what you need in the area of confidence. Go to the link in the bio to set up a chat.

This is one of those projects that completely surprised me. In a good way.
I was not very pleased when I received my fabric back as I had kept the scale too large and really wanted it to be a much smaller scale. Lesson learned.
I really struggled with what to make with the fabric.
When I finally decided on shorts I got a little bit excited.
And then I got really excited when everything turned out better than I had hoped.
There was no pattern for this just my pants block patterns that I had put together through a couple YouTube videos.
I use the zipper tutorial from a @sewoveritlondon pants pattern.
There were many hiccups along the way but I have learned to accept them as a normal part of the process.
Have you ever been surprised by one of your projects in a good way?

So many good intentions...
Even though I am all about the process, it is hard to document. Especially when I created my own pattern.
I do love the result in this case. The "Adorned" fabric in satin is glorious.
