Sewing provides a form of creative expression and a peaceful outlet for me, allowing for active engagement and a sense of presence while creating tangible items with my hands. It offers an almost otherworldly experience, coupled with the joy of also being able to consume media actively as I work. I cherish sewing among other outlets, and it contributes significantly to fulfilling days, like the one I spent discussing vivid topics with Caroline before coming home to craft a sweatshirt for my friend Chandler. Despite running into a few issues during the process, I'm thrilled with the progress of the sweatshirt and look forward to presenting it to Chandler tomorrow.
