Friends I have come to a decision to hang up my pattern making apron and put my painting apron back on.
After 3 years of trying to absolutely fall in love with pattern making, I am admitting that I really don’t like writing out the patterns – at all!
I have been a bit conflicted over this subject for some time now. At first I thought Machine Embroidery would fix my frustration. I did find it really neat and exciting, but then the same ugly problems started popping their faces into my daily life. The real problem?? Instructions. I hate them.
I would be on a really great creative streak and everything would come to a hault for the stinkin’ instructions. *sigh* They simply ruined all of the fun. Not to mention I never seamed to finish anything, because I was avoiding the instructions.
So after much thought, and some prayer, I have come to the conclusion that I want to just be an artist! I want to doodle, and paint, and do all things digital – well artsy digital that is.
I feel such a relief that it almost makes me want to giggle.
If you love art, and you love my style, just hold on to your seats and get ready for some eye candy.
Love you all,
Jennie Baer

It was a scary move, but sometimes truly following your bliss is hard.
At least I’ll have a little more time to visit the Blissguild forum!
Jen,
I popped on here to check out your blog and had a big surprise! No more embroidery! I’m sure you are relieved to have made the decision, even though it was a difficult one.
Your digital artwork is lovely! Can’t wait to see more!
