Hey hivers,
my very first experience that led me to this family. Yes, you read that right, fashion is my identity and coming to a community with so many like-minds makes them family for me, people who i get to do life with on a daily. Finding my way here wasn’t such an easy ride for me, you know.
The moment i got introduced to hive and got signed in,i saw so many beautiful communities and was super excited about the idea behind, i started searching for the one thing that i love so much “FASHION DESIGN“ After a proper search and not finding anything, i became really curious as to why, seeing photography, makeup, food and the likes then why is fashion design or even fashion missing?
i thought to myself and said there can’t possibly be a No fashion community here in HIVE. in The world right now the fashion industry has taken over and its doing so well so how come it doesn’t have a community here…
I muttered 1001 questions to myself only and maybe my phone too(lol) cause am sure I’d have gotten help earlier if i had asked around(set Awon i know my way around )
Fortunately, i have been blessed with such sweet people in my corner 
Who would have thought?
“THE NEEDLES WORK” a name so far away from fashion yet so close. I was mesmerized by the creativity, i fell in love immediately with the brains behind it, if there’s one thing that tickles my fancy is effort, when i see a thing, hear a name or title. I like to be able to feel the creator’s effort, it shouldn’t just be random or a lazy pick, it should be intentional, so yeah you see why I loved the name at first sight?
Without any further delay i went in search of the community and boom i saw so many creatives from around the world coming together to make a point. Loved how people could relate to each others post, likes and drop comments at ease, It didnt feel forced, its a natural flow cause we can all relate to most of these experiences. I immediately got to learn a few new tips from knitting after so many years of abandoning the skill, Now i want to give it a trial all over again, why? Cause this time i got people to help guide me through it here in hive.
A community where everyone’s opinion and creativity matters, There and then i knew i was in the right place.
Am already getting acquainted to the community, i love you guys already and i hope you all love me right back(baby face) i can’t wait to get creative and show you guys about my daily work and fun activities, aside from that i also want to be able to learn from everyone here and also meet amazing designers.
So yeah,
