Spending the time to knit or sew a garment for yourself is like showering yourself with love and care. During good times, making something for yourself is an exercise in joy. During anxious times, it can be soothing, and during difficult times, it can be healing.
This phrase is my own "note to self." I drew the phrase (be gentle with yourself) with tendrils of pothos leaves and had it woven onto satin clothing labels. I sew one of my "notes to self" into every single thing I make, and it always (always) makes me smile.
I think you'll love sewing them into your garments, too.
