I wasnt looking for advice and, to be fair to my sister, she wasn't intending to offer any. She expressed an interest in my project so I showed her the squares I'd cut out, we started to play with them, and she immediately saw a way to make the whole thing look much better. My reaction wasn't annoyance with her doing that, so much as a painful realisation that I'm not very good at what I've been trying to do, and I just don't have her creative eye. And then all my pleasure in the project just went, i realised I've been kidding myself, because I just don't have that creative imagination that she does.
