Yesterday i shared a bit of how my mojo has been a bit absent of late. I know this comes and goes, but what upset me more was it was also affected me and my makings, and I was feeling quite uninspired about my bears and wonklings. The fact is I can deal with feeling flat and mojoless but when my craft and ideas fail me, i feel a little lost, as it's often my bear work that helps me through those time. I didn't have any idea what I would make after my current project, and usually I have too many ideas, but always know which way to go. 
A great mate had told me about an exhibition Secret Animal Realms by Cat Rabbit at Fed Square which she thought I would love. Which I had some how missed hearing about. I'm a big fan of Cat Rabbit'sand love to try to see whenever she exhibits.
So Yesterday I had a bit of spare time while I was in town and popped into see it.It is utterly amazing, beautiful and wonderful, so inspring so full of so much thought, love and details. Tiny felt books the opened, skirting made of felt. I could go on and on.
I spent ages looking at each one, not really wanting to leave. I'm sorry the pics aren't the best but my camera ran out of juice.
And when I finally did i felt so renewed and inspired and back to have 4 bears in my head already. It's a wonderful thing about seeing great work, and amazing makers, how it can inspire or reinspire one
I cannot tell you how beautiful this exhibition is. If you have time do yourself a favour and go to it. It's only on until May 8, but I promise you won't regret it.

Oh I would love to go and see something like that. If only I lived a little closer....
Thanks so much for the photos. Brilliant to see it through your eyes even if I can't see it first hand.
Glad you have found some inspiration. I've just spent the morning sorting out the kids toys rather than go into my sewing room!
Oh my goodness!
This looks incredible - thank you so much for posting the pictures!xx
You are so right Jess! It does help to get out and reconnect with the world, and even better if that connection is with some amazingly inspiring creative stuff. So glad you are feeling better and big apologies that I didn't make it here yesterday to read your post and offer my support. Kx
Thank you for sharing these fun, playful images from the show! I make miniature vignettes with plushies too, so they're extra fun for me to see! Glad you got a dose of something wonderful to bring back your mojo! :-)
how gorgeous!!
i know the feeling of losing your mojo and crafting mojo at that!
i haven't made anything since february, usually i make every day!
Hope you start feeling more inspired and that your mojo comes back quickly! :)
Wow, that looks amazing - thanks Jess! so glad it help inspire you (and I hope it helps your mojo to return) xo
