Inspiration
This is another series that I have been wanting to make a regular part of this blog. I want to acknowledge the people and ideas and things that are inspiring me. In this post, I want to highlight three women who have inspired and challenged me in different areas of my life.
StephSewn
I came across Steph Sewn on YouTube from her series on sewing active wear. I stayed and subscribed because I find her videos informative, entertaining, and well done. I have learned a lot about fabrics and pattern companies from watching her videos. She also shares insights on other aspects of making, such as the pressure we put on ourselves about our makes, and how we can approach our making practically and realistically. I recommend checking out these videos:

TyeDye Diva
Trisha Bullock, TyeDye Diva came across my feed through her journaling, knitting, and crochet content. However, some of her most enjoyable videos have been her vlogs that cover a wide variety of topics and interests. She also shares honestly about her experiences and the things that are impacting her. The honesty and relatability are refreshing, and she has such a calm and soothing manner.

Priscilla Shirer
Priscilla Shirer is a speaker, teacher, and author who focuses on Biblical topics. She has also acted in several Christian films, including "War Room". Her writing and teaching has challenged me to go deeper in my walk with Christ.
I would recommend her "Armor of God" Bible Study series as well as the book "Fervent" for anyone wanting to check out her writing.
