I wash and fold fabric. That starts me pairing pattern with each fabric. In January, I will start to sew!

[@Threadquarters]

Great approach, thanks for sharing!

[@suestutzle2779]

I am in a bit of a lull with sewing at the moment. I totally agree with you. I know there is no use me forcing myself to sew because it's then that I can't concentrate and make mistakes. I have taken a break and done some Tunisian crocheting and now I am planning to sew one of those burrito pillow cases for my new pillow. Something simple, quick and easy to do. I had fun going to the fabric shop and looking for my fabric. Have just ironed the fabric.... Oh and yes, I tidied up. Yep, I'm on my way back. Yipee.....

[@loriar1027]

I totally agree about having a tidy space to sew helps with motivation. Sometimes I’ll reorganize a drawer as well.

[@margyb7469]

I've lost my sew Jo since cov 19 and losing my job due to it, lost my creativity with all the stress.

[@Threadquarters]

I've been the same Margy, it has been a tough year. Take care and don't worry about loosing your sewjo, it will come back when you are ready for it xxx

[@jojobrooke-flattery7901]

I spotted me!! #famousfor5seconds 😆 Great vlog & suggestions. I've been searching my mojo of late so put aside any idea of sewing for me & am making exclusively for my Hubby, our Son & Daughter in law... I'm liking the idea of wrapping them up warm, in cuddly, cosy clothes & searching out the right patterns for each person to fabrics I know they'll love is really re kindling my creative fire 🔥 😍

[@annettejason2026]

Agree on the tidying - keep walking into and out of my sewing room cause it needs sorting out 😍

[@Threadquarters]

Lol the only way my room got tidied was because I was filming this vlog! Totally worth it though because I'm sewing up a storm now! xxx

[@annettejason2026]

Hopefully my kids coming for Xmas 🤞🏻🤞🏻 will be the catalyst for getting sorted😳 have a very happy safe holiday xx

[@yougotmeinstitches1847]

Haya. Great video. I have been in & out of losing my sewjo a lot this year, new patterns & or going thru my pattern collection helps & tidying my sewing area (not that it always needs it) recently making a table for cutting out has helped me significantly as I have a bad back & needed something height appropriate, I always dreaded cutting out on the floor, the thing was I had a light bulb moment, I had all this wood in the garage, so I turned it into a table, it is not a fixed table, I simply stand the leg frames & lay 3, 4 or 5 pieces of shelving on top & voila a table, I can add or take away the shelving to suit :) Thanku for sharing. xx

[@veralatham7011]

I've seen the comments from everyone and I know what I have to do to get my mojo back. I'll begin tidying up maybe run to Hobby Lobby or Joanns to look at fabric. Thanks ladies Vera's getting her groove back (lol)

[@Threadquarters]

Wooo! Go Vera!!! 🎉😁

[@jenniferclucas5843]

I’m going to try the instant gratification tip and make some masks with Christmas fabric. Just watching the video has sparked the mojo a little though!

[@Threadquarters]

Oh yay! And masks are a great idea, super quick!

[@sallydingle321]

Hi Suzie, great suggestions for a better sewjo 👌.... I think the tidying tip is a big one for me...hate it when I'm in a mess, which at this time of year is nearly all the time 😋. The macramé is a lovely idea too 👍. Really enjoyed watching ....thanks Suzie 😁💝😘

[@Threadquarters]

Thanks Sally. Oh gosh, the mess is my biggest hurdle! My wee room always gets crazy....it was actually filming this vlog that got my to finally tidy it up after a few months of chaos! So glad I did, I am sewing away like crazy now!! lol

[@annettevanzyl7430]

Thanks a million Annette

[@maureencullen1008]

[@cindywoods2487]

I seriously want to make a t-shirt and have been looking for a good pattern. Which one did you say you like to use?

[@suek7086]

Love Notions classic tee is easy, quick, and comes in extended sizes.
