for those of you who saw
my first mentoring video with josh bennett
(posted yesterday on the fiber factor website),
you can maybe guess where this post is going.
with the deadline ticking ever loudly in my ears, josh
has managed to fill my head with ideas
for one final tweak to ‘buzzz’.
talked to him late monday morning.
sketched monday afternoon. narrowed the possibilities down to these:
at the top of the pic is my cable motif
(meant to represent a spring being sprung and releasing its energy)
the bottom is my rough ideas for how to extend the colorwork of the spring
up the sleeve a little for added pizazz.
i have to mail this sweater off in about 36 hours
so this is definitely down to the wire for me.
in this case, let’s try something i’ve learned about myself
in the last 5 months through the fiber factor competition.
turns out that paying attention to how i react to someone’s opinion or idea
actually tells me a lot about what my gut really likes and doesn’t.
who knew?
go ahead and tell me what you think.
it will so help me know what i think so i can get this finished,
and into the post on time.
thanks!

I like the second one from the left. It seems to represent the build up of the energy of the spring. 🙂 Interesting idea!
thanks for your input, samm. of all the things people have written, both publicly and privately, the middle two seem to be the most preferred. i prefer those 2 as well.
i’m finishing up the seaming this morning. maybe i’ll try each of the middle 2 on a separate sleeve and see what screams ‘this is it!’…so don’t worry if you hear screaming. smile.
I like the organic feel of far left. But also like second from left too!
after traipsing around to all the kid’s open houses (first day of school tomorrow), i’m just sitting down now try actually stitching something on to see it in ‘real life’…
I like the 2nd one from the left. It’s like you’ve harnessed and channeled the energy upward
