Today is my Bloggiversary and I have been blogging for 15 years! It's a good time to reassess what I'm doing, and I've decided it's the ideal time to stop. My reasons to blog have always been to inspire and connect with others and to keep an online record of my creativity for me. I get more engagement through my Instagram and for the last few years I've been keeping a monthly computer folder of photos as I work so I can see progress even when I'm not finishing anything. Here's a screen shot of what that looks like in case you are inspired to do the same
You can see that month I was working on my JIYA journal, some cards, and a baby quilt but it was a while before I had a "completed project" to share here on the blog. I just label the photos Art 1, Art 2 etc so don't beat myself up if I'm only creating once a week. Some folders this year have got to Art 37 and others only to Art 5 💜 It's all good.
I will probably still keep posting on my Instagram cos it's really lovely to go and scroll through my own art in one visual spot. My most recent post there was of these clusters I made with leftover paper and fabric bits that some would call scraps and throw away
And I have just realised I've spent over an hour composing and re-writing and editing this - time I could have spent creating...This Note to Self was one of my first posts :
