I haven't done kumihimo for ages it feels like, but it's fun to do so I should give it a go again. <br /><br />Saturday sequins: Thanks for you words! It's a very good advice that, making lists of accomplishments. It's so easy to see what we can't/don't know and what we haven't done, making us ignore or down-play the things we actually have accomplished. <br /><br />Reminds me of something our teachers/professors at uni told us when we were leaving. It's so easy to not see everything we learn, the knowledge becomes so natural to us it's easy to feel like we aren't the experts we really are. But look back to the first day you came to the uni, they said, and compare what you know now with what you knew then. And that made us all feel more confident, going out into the real world [well, I didn't do that as I spent the next two years at another uni, studying human geography.]Manekihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13362626785474144154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052855468880132303.post-79842569068596681332011-12-17T18:43:30.694+01:002011-12-17T18:43:30.694+01:00Hurray for embroidery floss!

I'm also an embroiderer/jewelry maker, and I love the idea of combining the two.<br /><br />The end of the year really is a time for taking stock of our lives, isn't it? One thing that helps me is keeping a list of all the things, big and small, that I've accomplished. It's gotten to be a long one! I read it whenever I feel insecure, and I make myself add to the bottom of it so I have to re-read it all the time. <br /><br />Maybe that would work for you? I haven't been following you for long, but you seem like a bright, talented, creative person, and I bet you'd have an impressive list.<br /><br />Cheers, and happy holidays!Sarah Sequinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08221653054315631804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052855468880132303.post-25565079361778340832011-12-17T02:39:47.085+01:002011-12-17T02:39:47.085+01:00I love the colors, you and I gravitate towards the...I love the colors, you and I gravitate towards the same ones :-) You could do some Kumi cords - they would be gorgeous with that floss.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12846730286299197806noreply@blogger.com
