My Textile Arts Learning Journey

This blog is a way to share my fumbles, frets, fiascos and fabulousness in textile arts.  I am treading in this branch of the arts for the first time. So far, I have had to conjure up a lot of patience, positive self-talk and perseverance. I’ve pulled deeply at my growth mindset mantras, “Expletive, expletive…darn stitch.  I am not good at you… YET

But, slowly, surely I am learning and improving. I produced a pretty macrame wall hanging the first week.

Two weeks ago, I could not knit at all. This week I completed a pair of booties.

Progress!
