You want to sew for yourself, but you often find you’re unfocused or distracted, not sure where to start, or struggling to get organized so you can finally begin.
That’s not surprising! There are SO MANY ideas and patterns waiting to be sewn up. It’s natural that we all find ourselves inspired but also overwhelmed! Very often, the advice is to “get organized,” but honestly, what does that even mean? That if we put everything in the exact right magical place that suddenly we will have clarity and know JUST what to sew next? We wish.
Instead, adopt a policy to CURATE according to where you are RIGHT NOW.
The word CURATE is so powerful. It instructs us to select what works for us, right now, using a theme or goal as our guide. We discard NOTHING but rather pull out what works, and set aside what doesn’t--and we have the freedom to repeat and re-examine the process as our circumstances, ideas, philosophy, and needs change.
In this three-part video series, we will explore the FIVE S CATEGORIES for curating your sewing:
- style
- space
- supplies
- skills
- schedule
Follow along with League founder Deborah Moebes as she uses her own closet and sewing space as a laboratory to explore these ideas in depth! Print the PDF workbook and explore your own ideas as you refine your sewing to make MORE of what you love in the time you already have for the live you're living today.
