About the Author: Julie
I am a Journeywoman. I live my life as an explorer. An adventurer. An Observer. An Artist. There is no differentiation between how I live my life and the art that is an expression of it. It is through my experience adventuring the unknown, that I learn more about myself. My aim through this connection is to live where my expression is fully in alignment with the essence of who I am. “In the field of Fine-Art Photography, Julie stands apart from others with the way she sees the world and expresses her connection within it. Julie Stephenson’s photographs are sublime. Her work is an expression of her deep connection; and a gift to the world.”

𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭 | 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐓𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬 Luxury Handwoven Blankets 🌏Stories from life & global adventures 🧩Woven into unique collector pieces Explore ⬇️
  • If this doesn’t look like you running to your studio to weave, perhaps you need some creative inspiration? 

Come follow along and see if you can find yourself some tips and creative mojo to get you running to your loom like I do!
  • Your weaving isn’t valued because it looks like it was made by a machine.
It is valued because it didn’t! 
Come along for tips, ideas and inspiration; as we create what is valued - together.
  • Just realised that perfection in your weaving isn’t the goal? Perfection isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. Machines can do that. Soul-less. What you create with your own hands is unique and unreplicable. 
Come join me as we weave our own life stories through our own hands.
  • You want it to be perfect? Use a machine. You want it to be loved. Use your own hands.

Have a look at how I create with my hands; and follow along for more creative tips and inspiration. 
  • Want perfection? Use a machine. Your hands are the whole point. Your hands leave traces that your pieces are made by a human. Your own lived experience. Soul-filled! 

Want your own handmade - creative inspiration, tips and ideas? 
Come follow along!
  • Your hands are the whole point! Machine-made is human-less; soul-less. Handmade carries traces of ourselves, which in turn enrich the lives of others. 

Do you try to create work that is ‘perfect’; like a machine? 

I weave stories from my global adventures into my handwoven blankets; and yes - an exceptionally high level of artisan expertise; but you can see and feel that they are woven by my own hands. 

Want creative inspiration? Share with your creative bestie and come follow along.
  • Wished someone had told me this when I started weaving. 
What NOT to do with your gorgeous Indie dyed singles from the festival; or for that project that didn’t quite get made! Excited about using them in your weaving? 

STOP - before you start warping!! 

You can use any yarns you like for your warp; BUT, with awareness. Discernment is necessary.

Shredding it - is a thing! 
Save this in your weaving ‘note to self’ folder, and share with your creative bestie, so you avoid broken warp yarns!
  • Your hands ARE the point.  The variations in what you create with your own hands are the traces and evidence that it was created by a unique human.
  • Machines “...copy the way, but can’t copy the soul”. FLORÉN FLO Beats
Your fingertips create traces that your pieces are made by a human. Everything that you create with your hands; Weaving; Art; Cooking; Music; Touch. Every gesture and movement uniquely yours. Extraordinarily human. Unreplicable
