Design is a worry for me also. I find trying to be critically objective about my work is a challenge. I have printed out the links as a very useful reference tool. Thank you

Design is a struggle for me, so the way I usually work is trial and error for new ideas while keeping in mind basic design principals (balance, proportion, unity, ect.)and sometimes things work, my goal is to have things work more often so I am glad to be part of the group.

So glad to see a design group, something that always causes me to struggle. I tend to design intuitively or from pictures. I need to develop a bit more knowledge about the design process.

After looking at a couple of discussions I decided to join this group. I do see some names and faces I recognize. ;-)

Although I took several design classes in college, etc., I've never thought much about how I design. I suspect the process would go better if I gave it some attention and it looks like this is the perfect group to help me understand what is going on. I will probably absorb your comments for a couple of days before putting in my two cents worth!

Hello from Kathleen in Connecticut. I'm very glad to have discovered stitchin fingers today. The Design discussions are interesting, and I look forward to more. I learn design by reading and by practice. Finding out how you each work with design concepts will help me too. By the way, I introduced myself on my own "comment wall" by mistake-until I figured out how to do it here! K.

Hello all, This looks a interesting group, just adding a comment to introduce myself. I tend to design on the fly, depending on inspiration which can come from anywhere, like in the TIF challenges: a colour palette, a concept, a picture, a snip of fabric or a bead. I don't always produce good designs, but that's part of the process. I'm going to read through all the comments and discussions now...

I just thought I would mention that I have started a blog about sewing on my profile page. I will be putting things up there so that I can share techniques and ideas. It isn't specific to this group, per se, just letting you know.

Hi, this looks an interesting group. Design is probably one of my weak points in my work, so I hope to learn from the members here.

hi all...I'm working more on design this year and a bit less intuitively so this group sounds perfect...thanks!

Hey Marg - what a great idea to start this group - I think it is shaping up to be one of the most interesting and informative groups here - well done!
