This is one of my designs I did some years ago. I posted it this week on Instagram, and wow what a response I got. The most likes of anything I have posted so far. It’s funny, but sometimes you just really cannot predict what people will react to. Projects that I think are great sometimes get no response. But I will say, it’s also a matter of your audience. Somethings get lots of likes on Facebook but not elsewhere, and that sort of thing.
I have also found and try to remember this every time I make anything. The number of likes you receive is in no way related to how good or nice the project is or even how well it will sell. Some get lots of likes and no sales, others get very few likes and lots of sales.
Of course, these are only a couple metrics.
There are other things that I think are far more important! Like what you learned from the project, how you felt, and how enjoyable it was to make. I strive hard to only do projects that I really enjoy, ad that includes the pattern, the stitches and the colors.
I can definitely say, every thing I make comes from the heart, and I truly do enjoy the process of making. And I think it’s so important to record this journey we call life in some form or another through writing or pictures.
