Take a stitch Tuesdays

In: Crafty Goodness

14 Dec 2006

More crafty goodness: I have signed up for the Take a stitch Tuesday Challenge by Sharonb, who is an amazing embroiderer and teacher. Back in college, I got totally hooked on embroidery and applique, but making a living got in the way. Now I’m back to it and loving it. The TaST challenge is to take just one stitch per week and work as many variations as you can think of, then post the results every Tuesday. It’s a great way to develop not only stitching skills, but an eye for design. I’m really looking forward to Jan. 2, when it begins. This challenge will go on for a year, and Sharonb wants as many people as possible taking part, so if this sounds like fun to you, why not join in?

About this blog

I'm not really famous. In case you were wondering. But I tried. I once believed that fame makes you real - a perversion of "The Velveteen Rabbit" theme that love makes you real. Guess I equated fame with love. Sad. You can read more about that here.
