    I won't argue with you
    I do single stitches, tried to rock the needle but the second stitch is way off so I'm not trying that again for now. Besides I pooked my fingers so often it wasn't fun anymore! I still stab myself but not that often.

    Anael, like everything else practice makes perfect. Malcolm Gladwell says it takes 10,000 hours of practice to become a master. Are we there yet? Again thanks for sharing your story and your talent.

    Now you'll be keeping track of the hours!
    I'm just green with envy at how well you are doing .............. and no, I do not have any plans to check out Malcolm's guidelines!

    So right QE; and I like how Anael pulled the colors of the pansies out to use in the baskets.
