I'm not too good with precision stitching either. I've never subscribed to the "Work out of your comfort zone " mentality. You know...I hate yellow so why in the world would I want to make ANYTHING yellow except the Sun which I love? Sometimes you just want to make something different, but I have always thought your work is diverse, yet with your own style. I'll have to think about that Fromm quote. I think I interpret it differently than Barbara.<br /><br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506351075015078187.post-61232580956116252262016-01-11T10:36:43.462-05:002016-01-11T10:36:43.462-05:00Oh I just love your words of wisdom.

Not so much challenging myself-but certainly being true to who I am and having that come out in my art. So hard for me to do because I love looking at other peoples' art. Just wanted to say-See ya in March-I'm off blogging for a bit-but will catch up later on.

I went through this with making teddy bears using different patterns. The ones I didn't like went into the trash, then I stopped trying patterns I was not accustomed to using. We can't be good at everything, so I don't know if I agree with Fromm. I'd rather that he said creativity requires the courage to leave what we are not good at to someone else. :)<br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12621581899286806108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506351075015078187.post-83912951902235659772016-01-11T07:04:26.657-05:002016-01-11T07:04:26.657-05:00It's quite a balance to achieve - creatives al...It's quite a balance to achieve - creatives always want to experiment...!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322676800314521539noreply@blogger.com
