Crafters often wonder why creating things brings such pleasure. Those who craft in order to sell have a need for creativity but also an ulterior motive of earning through their handwork. So why do we love to craft if it is not to sell, or even to give away as a gift? For me, on deep analysis, I realize that from the original idea, to the choice of fabric, the playing around with options and the final process of the project itself, feed a peace of mind, almost a meditation, that brings with it a deep happiness and calm.
There doesn't have to be a reason to craft. Just do it - for yourself, or others, but mostly for yourself.....it will make you a happier person, and that in the end, will make everyone else around you happier too.
