Love Notes from Fans of Sew-U
“Mister Domestic’s infectious creativity, inspiration and joy had me creating more than I ever had before. His teaching style and most importantly the all-important 95% percent rule, have made quilting and sewing the like very accessible to a novice sewist. He has also created a lovely inclusive community of like-minded makers in pursuit of the greater good of anti-racism, pro LGBTQIA+, which is awesome.
Mathew will teach you how to make the projects you only dreamed of and give you the mindset and confidence to finish.
It’s all about creating a joyous creative process, the product will be what it will…thoughts and words to live by!”

So much of how many of us show up on social media is in a triggered state. For me, it began in 2020, I was perpetually triggered. Throw in C-PTSD and it became a cataclysmic event. I’d use my triggered state to speak out, to stand up for myself, to end relationships, to make major announcements….. Being triggered became such a constant that I could no longer discern it from my own personality. Frankly, I was lost. Taking space and pause has been the only thing to get me back into a space of healing where I recognize myself again. And I’m trying real hard not to show up triggered on social. Especially because it doesn’t just end with one post, it starts a spiral. And I know it’s not just me. I see it everywhere, from posts to in the comments to dms. I just can’t occupy that space anymore. I hope y’all have noticed the difference the past few months in how I show up because I’ve been feeling really good about what I’ve been putting out. It feels really good to find myself again outside of being triggered and to be able to recognize the difference. Love you mean it. #selflovejourney #traumarecovery
To say that I’m officially obsessed with @sabbaticalbeauty is such an understatement because these products have made my skin look and feel so incredibly healthy. To check out the brand and/or snag your own, use code MxDomestic10 to get a discount. #sabbaticalbeautypartner #skincaredaily
Imagine if folks actually focused on protecting kids instead of trying to eliminate everything that didn’t fit into their worldview. Because those same folks pointing the finger at the LGBTQIA+ community for merely existing are the same humans causing the actual harm to children. Over and over and over and over again. Thank you @bhambluedot for making this video. #csasurvivor #lgbtqrightsarehumanrights
We lost an icon today who stood for and inspired so many. Pairing this song with this weave using the colors of the Progress Pride Flag felt right. #tinaturner #pride365
As much as I love me a good rainbow, I’ve also gotten pretty good at creating and finding my own. If you’re an “ally”, my preference would be for you to share how you’re using your privilege to shift minds and increase my safety as opposed to Happy Pride this year. If you’re doing so, please share in the comments to inspire others to follow your lead. Thanks in advance. #pride365 #lgbtqrightsarehumanrights

White privilege absolutely exists. Pretending it doesn’t and then coming up with an embarrassing lukewarm take doesn’t change that fact. Thanks @jkevinparker for sharing a voice and story with real impact. #whiteprivilege #systemicracism
Ever since I began following @redthreaded years ago, it’s been a dream to own on of her beautiful creations. Now the collaboration has begun. First up, picking the style. And that’s all you get to know for now but this is going to be both epic and iconic. Trust. For now, Let me know in the comments which one you dig. Love you mean it! #redthreaded #mxdomestic
With Pride Month on the horizon in tandem with corporations and brands kowtowing to conservative grandstanding, right now felt like the time I’ve been waiting for to make this video. And me making this means that I have come so far and healed so incredibly much and I couldn’t have gotten here without all of your support. And I promise my priority is to protect my peace on social media, as I need that for my continued healing and to reclaim my joy in sewing and crafting. But I also have an obligation to use my journey to spotlight wrongs so that they may and can be corrected. That is my intention here. #happypridemonth #lgbtqia
Resonates. Anyone else? #selflovejourney

"I saw an article that read 'Healing can be so hard when your inner child wants love, your teenage self wants revenge, and your current self onlywants peace.' And man, I really related to that." ~Soha Rehman
