Hello, friends! Happy 2020! It’s been a while since I posted here, mostly because of the holidays, life, and, honestly, not spending much time in my sewing space these past few months.
Instead, I’ve been channeling my creative energy into a new passion project: building FeelGood Fibers, a marketplace for the exchange of secondhand and pre-loved fabrics. I’m excited to announce that our official launch will be on February 2nd!
Sewing Less, Creating More: An Evolving Creative Journey
It’s funny how this project came from my deep love of sewing. Quilting and sewing bring me joy—I love the creative process, the sense of accomplishment, and being part of such a supportive community. But as I’ve worked behind the scenes to get FeelGood Fibers ready, I’ve had less time to actually sew.
Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily. It’s just… new. It’s a little scary, a lot exciting, and 100% challenging. I’m learning to grow in ways I never expected, stretching my creativity beyond fabric and thread.
I’m Still Here (Just in a Different Way)
Although I don’t have many work-in-progress photos or new sewing tips to share with you right now, please don’t take my quietness as disengagement. If anything, I’ve been more connected to this community than ever—following your projects, cheering for your wins, and sharing your struggles with finding creative time and staying organized.
Just like you, I’m on a journey toward living a more sustainable and intentional creative life. And that’s exactly what I hope to inspire through FeelGood Fibers.
What Is FeelGood Fibers?
FeelGood Fibers is more than just a marketplace for pre-loved fabrics. It’s a space where you can:
- Destash your fabric collection and create room for new projects.
- Find rare and out-of-print fabrics at reasonable prices.
- Connect with other sewists and makers through shared ideas and experiences.
While it begins with me curating content, illustrations, and playlists, the larger dream is to build a vibrant, collaborative community. I envision a space where you’ll not only discover fabrics but also share your own playlists, ideas, and creative inspiration.
Join the FeelGood Fibers Community
FeelGood Fibers isn’t just about buying and selling fabric—it’s about learning together, growing creatively, and supporting each other in our creative journeys. Whether you’re looking to reduce fabric waste, live more sustainably, or simply connect with other makers, we hope FeelGood Fibers will be a place where you feel inspired and supported.
Get Involved
If you have ideas for content, topics you’d love to see, or thoughts on how we can build a more intentional creative community, we’d love to hear from you!
Let’s make space for the things we love—both in our sewing rooms and in our lives.
