I am sewing this hot pink motorcycle jacket, and embroidering a snake on it.
This is just one side, clearly, the snake will go around the back of my neck, and back down the other front side of the jacket.
This is partly to represent all the layers I feel I have been shedding the last few years. And partly it's just that a snake embroidery has been on my mind for a long time... but this one ended up so different from how I first imagined it, I think I may still do a snake shirt or dress in the future.
I started working on it in January, but it's been an idea for about 4 years.
I even bought the fabric and pattern around 2022, with the idea to embroider the fabric before sewing it.
It took a few years for the snake idea to come into clarity, like how, exactly, to do it. What it looks like now is nothing like how I thought it would when I started, but I am loving it what it has become! When I'm wearing it, it won't be immediately obvious that it's a snake which I kind of like.
I've been making ALL of my clothes for over 15 years.
I started doing embroidery on the fabric before sewing about 5 years ago. And I am now slowly getting into these more complicated embroideries.
This is a VERY slow project.
I love having slow projects on the go. Once it's at this stage, I can pick it up and stitch without really thinking which is so good for my mental health and it gives my creative mind time to wander and come up with new projects.
I am also working on an embroidered artist's smock, which I am a bit stuck with right now but I will share photos eventually.
And I am starting experiments for some other kinds of fiber arts.
One of my dreams is feel good about how I balance all of my different dreams.
Tending to the Creative Dream Incubator is a MAJOR dream that means a lot to me. As the world has changed, and some of the ways my business functioned don't work as well, this is taking more of my time and energy to re-create.
And for a while I was putting other creative projects aside to focus on this. But that's not the right way for me.
I think it's just a work in progress to keep balancing and re-balancing.
Co-Dreaming/Co-Working call is today! I hope to see you there!
We'll start with a short meditation for connecting with the soul of your dream (like the Dream Lab) and then have time for whatever you want to do - planning next week (there is a planning sheet you can download on that page!), working on your projects, sharing your updates, talking about something that is stuck with your dreams or just hanging out in the magic of the group.
Call details are here. Replay will be there a few hours after we're done today.
