Be transparent. Use your real name, and back up your claims. Keep it local and relevant. That was a big goal of ours. We wanted to try and wow the judges, but mostly we just wanted to be able to watch the show with our kids back home and be proud of what we made together. The best thing I learned from Craft Wars is that crafting is crafting. I was so worried about making something BIG. Like most crafters, everything I make is generally relatively small. As it turns out, and I should have known this, crafting big uses all the same skills and techniques as crafting small.

All you need is more time and bigger supplies. I came home inspired to do some bigger home decorating projects with that confidence. If you asked me in the middle of a timed challenge, I probably would have said yes but now that I have had time to relax and reflect, the answer is no. No matter how hard I try to change up my style, it generally comes out the same. I like linear design. I like things that are relatively symetrical and clean. As much as I enjoy looking at shabby chic designs, my end project never comes close.

My design aesthetic always veers in the same direction- linear and graphic. The pop craft challenge looks so difficult! Pattye and I had done a few less structured and less serious time challenges for the online show we were on years ago so I thought we would breeze through the stress of a timer.

At one point, I was struggling to thread a needle I swear it had the smallest eye in the history of needles to make matters worse and I was literally shaking with nerves.

I had to take a deep breath to keep it together! The most important piece of advice that I try to live by is to just DO it. If I make a shoddy craft that ends up in the trash, I can live with that now. What I shoot for, always, is to embrace the process of creativity.

The joy it brings me. You can hear them talk about their experiences on the show, the pressures of crafting with limited materials and time, and how life has been for them after the show.
