for some time, i sat and looked at this and recked my brain over what i was going to make. the funny thing is, i have 5 different garments that had that "wow factor" to me. once i was behind my sewing machine, the feeling was gone. all of a sudden, i wasn't satisfied anymore. i ended up making a bubble shirt that hangs off one shoulder but i am so displeased with it that i refuse to post it! i don't know why i am so hard on myself! i always seem to get great comments about the things that i make but being my own worse critic, i am never happy. i've even had a few people ask me to make them something but me being me, that self confidence and cynical thinking holds me back. i can't explain why i am so hung up on this feeling like people should look at what i make and ask "how did she do that". i guess i shouldn't look at that as a complete problem. at least i'll always push myself to do better.
i am stuck in this "make dresses" phase. high-waisted skirt dresses, ruffled dresses, shirt dresses... you name it, my heart is telling me to make it. so why not make them?? because i don't want to be known as the chick who only makes dresses! plus they all seem to look alike to me!!
maybe i need to sleep on it.
