  1. I get inspired by so many things…I’ll wake up from a dream with a certain color on my mind and have to look in my stash for a match. I am never quite sure what I’m going to do with some of my fabrics and supplies when I buy them…I often wait for a dream, or after a walk, or some other moment in time that catches me just right. Thanks for the giveaway!

  2. This time of year, when it’s raining, and spring has sprung, inspires me to sit in my sewing room, with my rose bushes blooming before me and sew.

  4. I think inspiration is all around us – it can be random, like a building, or a memory of a childhood vacation (both have inspired me in the past lol!)

  5. Many things inspire me — nature, books, magazines, photos, fabric, etc. Sometimes inspiration hits out of the blue and I wonder where it came from.

  6. I don’t think I’m very creative, so I need to have someone else show me the way. Therefore, I am inspired by the work of other people, especially fabric designers.

  9. What inspires me? Almost anything can. A color. A word. Something I read or something someone says. A beautiful sight. A beautiful site. Nature.
