Showing off is Valid

I love sewing online because I get to share what is in my brain with others, and because of sewing I can actually make what is in my brain a reality. I have thought lots about making a tongue sweater, and even shared the idea in last week’s newsletter. Bringing it to reality was fun, but I was unsure if other people would like it. I ended up sharing a little reveal and lots of people loved it just as much as I did. There is joy in community, especially the sewing communities on Tiktok and Instagram.
