Fulfilling…

Yesterday I provided a private sewing class with Amy, a CReATE Customer who I now feel I can call a friend.

We spent two hours together as teacher and lesrner. I showed her some sewing basics I like to use to build a connection to sewing. As she worked her fabric, sewing square inside of square she remarked that it was pleasing to follow a tempo to machine sew. I found that the more she sewed, the more we talked, the more we talked, the more we connected. Connection happens to be one of the three  foundational components of CReATE STUDIO. Reuse, Creativity and Connection underscore all of what we do, all of what we provide and here I was in the middle of connecting myself with a wonderful woman over the task of sewing. 

Being in the present, sewing and threading and untangling the little hiccups that sewing can have was soothing as we talked about family, ideals and of course, sewing. We were both in the moment and it felt really good to be there. Yes, this is why connection is one of our key pieces. It fills us up and warms our soul. Connection is one of the basic needs we have as humans Author and Researcher Brene Brown would tell us. Yes, I can see first hand the value of connection and I’m so glad to provide a space where Connection is a thing. It’s part of what you get and the gettin’ s good.
