What inspires you to keep making things?
"What inspired me to keep making things is a compilation of need and want. Often times I need an item and can find it or it’s not readily available so I make it."
What one piece of advice would you give to other makers?
"Don’t compare your work, your self or any part of the process to anyone else. Making, crafting and or DIYing is an art form that isn’t bounded by 'the right way.' Create freely, make mistakes and keep going! The best things are often happened upon."
What is your biggest takeaway from Making It?
"My biggest takeaway from doing the show is you shouldn’t limit yourself. If you want it go after it!"
"Don’t compare your work, your self or any part of the process to anyone else." — Maria Antoinette Loggins
