Chunky weaving will always have my heart!
My first Pibione project used an entire bump of @lovefestfibers and was over 2 ft wide. I instantly fell in love with the technique. It inspired my kit for @thecraftersbox (which is available on their website) and a video class that explains how to add more than one color and create your own pattern (now available on my website).
I think a big, chunky piece is calling my name again though... brb while I go sketch some pattern ideas 😍🙌🏼

This piece just felt GOOD from start to finish. I couldn’t stop - I had to steal every spare moment to run back and finish, because it just felt like it had been waiting for me, if that makes sense!⠀
When have you felt that way about a project or medium, or any extracurricular activity? Listen to your intuition and pay attention to that feeling. When you get it, pursue it, because that’s when you will find a piece to the puzzle of what makes you YOU. ⠀
I felt this way the first time I grabbed a picture frame to make a loom. It was like magic - like my mind and fingers had been waiting for me to play with fibers in that specific way and I don’t think I’ll ever fall out of love. ⠀
On the other hand, some mediums and projects just take a lot more mental work to get through them. I’ve always WANTED to be a painter, and I do enjoy it somewhat, but I always feel discouraged and stressed. It’s just not my calling! 🤷🏼‍♀️⠀
Try something new this weekend! It might be something you don’t click with... it might be so-so... or you might feel magic! ✨💫⠀

Messy studio table in a messy studio. I took this shot last week as I put together the last few pieces for a triangle macra-Weave collection for @dhgshop . ⠀
I almost cringed when I saw the photo and wanted to swipe the table clean, but if I only took photos of my studio when it’s clean and organized, I’d never take photos of it 😉. Such a great reminder to many things in life, right!?⠀

I’ve been really enjoying learning about bead weaving and trying to make my visions for giant bead sculptures come to life. ⠀
I still haven’t gotten it though - the circular wooden beads don’t fit together as well as flat seed beads and they’re too heavy for any rope or string I try, so the top rows get gaps when it’s hung up. ⠀
But it’s so fun and I think it will be one of those projects that ‘clicks’ one day and I’ll have solved my issues. 😍🙌🏼⠀
Have you ever had a project like that? ⠀

I have a question. What medium do you go to when you want to challenge and impress yourself vs what medium do you go to to relax?
(If you’re new here, I have weaving and macrame video classes on my website 😘)
I realized that when I’m weaving, I almost ALWAYS start with a sketch. I like knowing what shapes are coming up so I can have the yarns laid out to inspire me, and already have a general idea of what the final product will look like in my head.
But macrame? I ONLY go with the flow. In fact, I don’t like reproducing following a pattern at all. When I need something that offers quicker gratification, fewer supplies and limited attention to mindlessly do knots, I grab a spoil of rope and get knotting.
Both are part of my daily ritual to quiet my mind and recharge, so that I can take on the rest of the day feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.

I had a few minutes to work on a personal project before my son woke up today. I love rediscovering hobbies I use to do growing up! Have you ever picked up an old hobby that brings back memories?
I remember getting super ambitious about a dragon and fairy castle cross stitch pattern I saw at a craft store and convinced my mom to get it for me 😂 I never got close to finishing it, but the possibility of using my own hands to create such a beautiful scene made my 13 year old heart so excited!
I still feel that way when I create a sample of a new technique and have dreams of recreating it on an extra large scale... if only there was enough time to make all of our crafting dreams come to life, right?
The fact that life has come full circle and I’m still finding ways to enjoy the childhood hobbies I left behind gives me hope that life may circle back around someday and those big-project-dreams might be re-imagined and actually happen down the road.
For now, I’ll keep stealing early mornings to explore and think back on how much fiber has ALWAYS been a part of my life ❤️❤️
Happy Friday, friends!

Lindsey

If you asked me what one of my favorite project classes has been so far, I would have to say my macrame stars class! I spent weeks tweaking with yarn, trying to find a way to create a symmetrical, sturdy, 5-pointed star, and when the answer came to me, it was like a lightbulb moment. Don’t you just love when that happens!? Sometimes ideas come right away... and sometimes it takes a while. Sometimes you give up... and sometimes you keep trying just long enough for everything to fall in to place 🙌🏼⠀
The reason I love this project class is because the stars work so well as holiday decor, but they’re simple and timeless to hang around your home all year long. I have 3 different sizes on my walls right now! ⠀
Head to my website to find my project classes and make a star garland or a star wreath for yourself 😘⠀

Never get tired of this room. It’s a beautiful morning in my studio and we’re all sleeping in after staying up extra late to watch fireworks for the fourth.
I’ve learned over the years that I definitely have some introverted qualities - namely, I’m fueled by time spent alone. As a mom, I get 0 time alone (which I love!) but late mornings like this where I can work in my studio with only the clacking of my loom and my own thoughts give me extra energy and motivation!
What about you?

I answered some questions about preordering my second book in my stories yesterday - you can find all info saved in my highlight called ‘Book 2’!
USA readers can preorder the book on my website or Etsy shop and I’ll sign it and ship it 😘😘
If you’re not in the USA, you will probably have a hard time finding it because even when my first book came out, it took a few months for it to be stocked on Amazon, boutiques and other book retailers around the world. It’s still not available everywhere. Your best bet is to get it in my Etsy shop! I refund shipping overages and sign the books and you will get the book much sooner. Head to the link in my bio for the links!
*Photo from one of the advanced techniques in my second book - release date is early August, so preorder now! 🤗

Do you ever stop in a store to inspect or take a photo of a woven pillow or rug? Please say I'm not the only one! I'm always trying to spread apart rows and take pictures for reference... what's your favorite store to do this in??⠀
I’m currently working on a new Pibione pillow pattern for @thecraftersbox ‘s new marketplace - you can now get kits, classes and supplies from them without being a subscription member! This is the pattern I created for them last winter, made in different colors by a the talented @chatnoir29 🙌🏼
Pibione pillows are BIG right now. I feel like I see them in every home decor store and boutique I stop in! I totally get it. They're gorgeous - and you can make one yourself, like this, by using any of my kits in @thecraftersbox marketplace. Head to the link in my bio and then go their marketplace to browse all the amazing kits they have to offer.⠀

I want to ask you something. What makes a good artwork? What stops you in your tracks, actually makes you pause your day and consider what you are looking at? Is it a feeling, a composition, a new-ness? Please comment below. It would mean so much hear you individually and use your feedback to grow as an artist.⠀

This week I started filming a new macrame class during some hours I have blocked out specifically for work... but a few days later I decided I wanted to take the class in another direction.
With my Monthly Weaving Series happening this year, I’ve been itching to do some macrame, you know!? Thanks for your input in my stories on how to make this class exactly what’s been missing in the macrame world! 🙌🏼
I’m excited to start over with clarity, but a little sad that I didn’t sit down and think it through first, so that I could have worked smarter, not harder, and wouldn’t have wasted that time.
Does that ever happen to you?😜 Time is a valuable commodity over here with my work-from-home balancing act!
The first piece I filmed for the macrame class won’t actually be included anymore... but I’m definitely in love with it, so it’s brightening up my own walls and bringing me joy!
Hoping you are having a happy Sunday, and wishing all the men in your life a Happy Father’s Day!

Who knows what this pile of tools could be? 😍
Moving from a frame loom to a rigid heddle loom can be quite an adjustment (and I’m constantly answering student’s questions about this jump in my DMs and email). The techniques, assemble, price and time are all a bit more of an investment than simply warping a frame loom and getting to work.
That’s why I was so excited when my friends over at @thecraftersbox announced that the first craft in their new premium kits (ALWAYS available in their new marketplace, so you don’t have to be a member to order) was a gorgeous rigid heddle loom, with fibers and a full class from @weaverhouseco . You get everything you see in this pic + the class. It’s the perfect answer if you’re apprehensive and curious to get started!
Head to their account to learn more. I’ll be warping my rigid heddle loom in my stories today and sharing the process a bit!

I was so happy when @Dyson reached out to ask if I would share about their revolutionary new light: The Dyson Lightcycle task light. I definitely needed this lamp for my studio table! It automatically simulates properties of natural daylight and is designed to reduce eye strain. #sponsor⠀
I can adjust the brightness and warmth from an app on my phone, or set it to automatically adjust to the light so I don't have to think about it. I've been using it in the evenings or on a rainy day when I get a spare moment to weave in my studio. Good light makes me happy!⠀
Thanks Dyson - I might be moving this between my studio and office for late night editing sessions too...⠀
