Susan, thanks for sharing your process. Often, I hear "How do you come up with your ideas?" I say, Trial and Error, correct and continue. Watching you audition elements into your piece made me chuckle because I was making suggestions as you went along. Sure enough, you must have heard me. You have a great sense of balance with your placement of elements to bring focus to you piece.
I find that I need to remember the original vision I have for a piece. If I start out seeing a cave drawing I can’t merge that with a Norman Rockwell style painting. Staying true to the original vision helps to guide me. Not saying a piece can’t evolve, just that it is less frustrating for me. I also only watch the videos that stay in that groove. I usually go awry when I blend too many styles. Your work grounds me. Trudge on, dear sister, you are blazing a trail for many to follow.
I also am presently going through the same dilemma however I try not to look at the piece as a ‘mistake’ which brings in one’s ‘fear’ to create. Taking a breath, trust and give time to see what the fabric speaks to you.
Oh my I love this piece, the colors, the stitches ... Love watching and listening to your process of creativity. Thank you for posting.
Susan I think there should me more fibre art like you are doing! I have fallen in love with this art! Keep going you’ve got it! 🥀
First, the fabric printing/dying is GORGEOUS! That's a good start. WE ALL HAVE OUR DOUBTS - at the beginning, the middle and hopefully as we arrive at the end, that crazy journey makes sense. Just love your work and your freedom in the creative process. I have to try the doily dying because those colors are just gorgeous. This was such a helpful video; learned so much. Thank you for sharing.
It will be beautiful when you get it finished. I think we overthink our projects. I'm learning sometimes less is more. I like to take pictures of my ideas and then look at them. Does my eye travel around the piece, does it get stuck on one spot, how do the colors flow? I prefer things in threes or fives they just make sense to me. Your work is amazing trust your inner artist I very much look forward to seeing your finished piece!💗
Always doubt, but sometimes I need to just walk away and let my mind have a rest!
I feel like you are speaking to me. Our brains work in the same way. I fuss and create a 1000 extra elements so I have plenty to choose from when I stop procrastinating and begin actual assembly. Then I audition items forever and need to walk away for an hour because I don't like it. Usually to dig for that something special that's missing. BUT... in every project there's a magic moment where a switch flips and I'm in LOVE with it and i have an art frenzy until it's finished! 😂 Most All my creations take forever but the process was worth the end result! 💜 I see your vision and I hear you my friend!
Namaste xo
Yes Yes Yes!!! There's texture, structure, flow, top to bottom -- and of course, MUCH MORE TO COME!!
Yes I will fiddle with my artwork sometimes till exhaustion sets in. All in an attempt at perfection. It's sooooo elusive indeed!
This is beautiful!!! Congrats
Thank you so much!!
Susan, you are always a wonderful source of inspiration! It is already so beautiful, I imagine that it is going to turn out amazing! I can always, always relate to you about self doubt, unsure, not liking something, etc. I have a dozen or so things that I have walked away from and when I do finish something it takes me forever. Thank you for sharing and reassuring me that I am not alone.
For those who may struggle from time yo time, this book has been very helpful so I share its wonderful advise with you all: ‘ART AND FEAR’ BY DAVID BAYLES AND TED ORLAND
Loved watching your thought processes. Working through ideas is always interesting and yes we all have doubts. The hardest thing is to keep going!
Hello Susan I’ve just found your sight and will be up all night watching your videos. This is just what I’m looking for I love the free style stitching it is so amazing. I love love love everything I’ve seen so far thank you so much.
Beautiful!
Love seeing how your mind works. I can really relate to your process as I create in a similar way. Only I don't think of it as doubting myself, it's just trying things till the visual strikes the right chord of my thoughts. Thank you for sharing. It's kinda nice knowing there are birds of a feather that are similar out there.
The FUN in creating as you go! 👍🏽
Omg it’s looks so nice and love the colors too. Love the idea how you put it’s together. I’m new and I wanted learn how to make something like that and see if I can make a choker out of this kind of fabrics…thank you for showing this video.💫🙋♀️💫
Thanks so much!! What a help!!
You're welcome!💚
So fantastic to watch the process. SO helpful. Thank you!

Wow-boy-I sure do love this!!!!!
I always tell.my students "there is no such thing as mistakes, only creative opportunities". I often have to remind myself of that tho. Sandra-Kay.
I’m loving this!
Beautiful, exiting, love it!!!❤
Beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for sharing your thought process with us. Another scrumptious piece🤩
I like your cheesecloth, reminds me of dried grass. Really like the 2nd long fiber. That doily you used is awesome. Would love to see more of it in this piece.
Your work is always inspirational just go for it
I love where this is heading! Just found your channel 😊 PS - I tend to play with bits and pieces until it ‘feels right’. I just have fun and relax.

Thanks for sharing your creative muse and the thoughts that you go through. Happy Holidays!!Namesta ✌️🕉️🐞
Hello! Merry Christmas! I am new to your channel and just started watching your video's. I love the process, so relaxing! I think as Artists we are very critical of our own work, I need to loosen up and enjoy myself, trust that what I'm doing is for me. Take care!
Thanks for such a freeing attitude. I needed this today.
You are so welcome!❤️
I think it is beautiful and it helped me not to Criticize what I make
👍👍👍🌈🌈🌈🏞️🏞️🏞️📿📿📿🎉🎉🎉🌌🌌🌌
💚💚💚
I have no problem cut fabric or actual lace its those dang crocheted items
@@SusanTaylorBrown thank you again. I've learned a lot from you
I'd like to know if you do anything to your edges on your doilies to keep the crochet from just falling apart. I have some I want to cut up but my brain stops me from just jumping in the. They go back to sit I. The bin fir later??? Who knows what and I've done absolutely nothing to them and they dont get used. Help
@@SusanTaylorBrown ok makes sense thanks
@@SusanTaylorBrown the piece you were laying down looked so neat and together I was pondering just what is her secret
@@SusanTaylorBrown oh yep that could make a difference too never thought of that. I have got to cut into my stuff lol
Beautiful!
