Well, I have also recently been falling behind in my sewing and not spending as much time in my awesome new space... why oh why???? Was my finally found hobby becoming a flash in the pan??
Well, I have recently had time to start looking at (at least some) of the daily reviews and I find it's sparking my creative juices again! I think just being stuck in my own little world and not having the vision and drive on my own, I needed that little push from my PR friends out there!
Thanks to all who continue to review on a daily basis!! ------ Brother Innovis 1250D

Even if I don't have much time to sew, I stay interested and inspired by the reviews, questions and comments. I feel like I'm learning more all the time from this site. Thanks Deepika and everyone else who adds to my daily fun time! |

 3 members like this. Date: 11/18/12 11:44 AM I remember writing and posting my first review. I was a new garment sewer and slightly intimidated by the expertise on this site. I was so surprised to get comments and compliments. Posting in the gallery and participating in the forums helped me find the skills needed to keep going and improve.
I really value this site, and taking a few minutes to look at projects does spark my own creativity. It also connects me to other PR members and that is priceless.  ------ my blog: http://kf-biblioblog.blogspot.com/

I am so excited to get any comments on my reviews. It really makes you feel good. And I looooove seeing other sewists projects. I don't have friends who sew so for me this is such a valuable resource. |

Date: 11/20/12 9:31 AM It is wonderful to hear your feedback about posting and reading reviews!! We are so glad that you all find the site a source for inspiration. And as someone who takes forever to decide on a pattern, I read EVERYTHING you all write about- it is so helpful.
Happy Thanksgiving, all! |

Date: 11/29/12 11:04 PM I am hesitant about buying patterns if they haven't been reviewed here, and I am an old and worn sewist. Which means I have to keep up and do my part.
I just wish PR was more like Ravelry in terms of the interface. I have old eyes. I need big BIG type. |
