Which do you do?
When you see a new technique or method of doing something -
Do you "keep on doing what you've been doing"? or give the new method a try?
Some examples:
How to treat fabrics that bleed -
Starching or not starching -
Using glue or not using glue -
Do you do (or not do) whatever because "that's the way you were taught"? or "that's how Mom did it"? or from trying different methods/techniques and then deciding which works better for you?
Sometimes the way we were taught IS "the best way" - but not always -
How hard is it for you to try new methods and allow yourself to be objective about the results? (After factoring in the learning curve)
Or if someone says - blah blah blah - do you do an experiment to see if it is so? or if it just sounds good? (Or wonder if that someone has actually done "tests" to verify his/her statements?)
