Extremely relatable! I have also been going through a style existential crisis, recently joined the r/gorpcore subreddit ("gorpy" also fits into my style profile somewhere), and have been scheming about sewing projects. I, however, am not to the point of being able to sew whatever comes into my brain and I'm beyond impressed that you can! Until I get there, maybe in a decade, I will bask in your creative genius glory!
I will say, garment sewing gets exhausting in a way that other creative projects don’t, for me. Now when I notice I’m getting tired or frustrated while sewing, I take a break! (That’s my biggest sewing tip: stop when you’re bummed it doesn’t quite fit right/etc!)

I have the same rule for myself! Except the last time I got frustrated and took a break, it was for a year 😣 Slowly dipping my toes back into it!
