Dyeing, Drafting and Doubts

'It's just fabric, it's just fabric,...' this has been my mantra the past few weeks. I don't know why, but sometimes I get completely petrified of cutting into my fabric and making some mistake along the way. And the craziest thing about it is I'm not talking about very expensive fabrics here.

I don't know why and where does this self-doubt come from, but it's really starting to get on my nerves. Between having a few thousand ideas in my head all the time, I now have to fight this unexplainable fear of making a mistake.
