it's not quite a jaguar

I think I've decided I want my art career/path to be a lot more textiles-based. At least, at the moment. I realised the other day that I've barely done any drawing in the last two months and, while it feels weird, I'm kind of okay with that as well.

I am definitely in a textiles hole at the moment, and I've got a whole bunch of things that I want to do (but I can't do them all at once, which is frustrating. I need to write a list before I forget them). And it is something I keep circling back to. Also sewing is easier to do with a cat sat on you. (Yes, I could shoo her off, but I would feel mean).

Also, like, most of the books I've bought recently have been sewing books - those two I mentioned in a previous post came, and I ordered another one with the Xmas money my family gave me. I bought a sewing book in the new year. I keep digging out my mum's sewing books and magazines for inspo. I think this is where things are going, and I am not unhappy with it.

Not that I'll stop drawing, but I've done so much in the last two years, that I am probably due a bit of a break, right?

I don't have any new year's resolutions beyond this, except to get better at doing my ko-fi. It was okay when I started, but then September upended everything (because I was ill most of the month), and I don't feel I've got back on track since. I think I need to start writing when I am going to make updates there (like supply reviews) in my planner, so that I actually do them instead of, well, not doing them. I also want to add a few more rewards. And do those random print packs.

Anyway, I think that's all I have to say for the time being.

I hope everyone has a lovely, cosy New Year's.
