A FAILURE....

Sorry I haven't been around much, but my tremor has been HORRENDOUS and I have gotten very little crafting done.  This morning I was a tiny bit steadier so I decided to do some work on the mug rugs I was making for my aunt and my folks for Christmas.  Well...long story short...they flopped.  Badly.  I'm even ashamed to show them on here!  But, rest assured, I'm NOT completely discouraged.  I refuse to let this DANGED tremor win!  I will just pick out some new fabric and this time hopefully complete them without incident...when my hands are steadier than they are now, lol.  

I'm off to try a different craft that maybe I don't need to be quite so steady to master!

Don't forget...the giveaway will be drawn on 9/8/13, so follow me and then comment ON THE GIVEAWAY POST if you would like a chance to win!

  1. It is never a failure and you never give up! It was an experiment and you don't want to share it! Or share what you did manage to do while being in a flair. You aren't alone out here and many of us struggle along with you and are proud of what you and "us" can accomplish! Blame it on the weather, I do!

    1. Thank you! I have to remember that...the weather...hmmm....yes, definitely the weather! Lol. I moved on to another type of craft. I just went back to my "weather induced experiment results" and pulled them out of the trash. Maybe they aren't all that bad after all! I tend to be OVERLY perfectionistic and while the stitches aren't straight, etc., will my mom, dad and aunt really care? Nope, they will love it because I made it for them and that is all that really matters. I know they will be proud of what I did while in a flair and I should be too! Thanks for setting me straight.
