Hey all! Anybody else feeling overwhelmed with trying to keep up with the daily business grind? I took a few days off my socials, but now I just feel behind. What's your go-to for a creative reset?

The 1st classroom here is live! It's a repository for quilt patterns and layouts that I've designed. There are only 2 modules right now, but I'll be adding to it as we go. Feedback is, as always, appreciated.

It doesn't matter if it's huge or tiny, or even if it's not "finished" or still messy on your desk right now. Drop a recent creative win in the comments: ✨ Finished a piece you've been sitting on for weeks ✨ Learned a new technique or tool ✨ Tried a medium you've never touched before ✨ Got unstuck on something that was frustrating you ✨ Just made time to create when life's been busy This community works best when we're cheering each other on across every discipline — painters, makers, illustrators, sculptors, whatever your medium. So let's hear it. What are you proud of right now? Comment below 👇

Since the community rules page is almost impossible to find and it's only letting me give titles for the rules, I'll be pinning this post with all the community rules. Please note that I reserve the right to update the rules at any time, as new issues may arise (or I find grammatical errors). I'll do my best to inform you all of updates, but I can't guarantee it. Those Rules I Promised 1. Be Positive - I know we all have bad days, but let's not take it out on other community members. 2. Make an Effort - I love having all of you here and want this to be an inclusive community. Please make an effort to read and comment on each other's posts. 3. No Promotions - Ok... some promotions, but only in posts marked for promotion, or if you have asked 1st. All other promotions will be removed. 4. Ask Before You DM - Some people can be uncomfortable with getting DMs from people you don't know. Please respond to a user post or comment requesting to send a direct message and get the go ahead before you do.

Do you ever have a day where it takes hours to get thru your emails and notifications? I'm having those a lot lately, and would love to know -- how you handle the business part of your creative life?
