So, I've started a flickr group. If you look through a craft flickr group, you'll be amazed at the creative things people make. There are some super talented people out there! But . . . the thing about these flickr groups is that people always post their successes - their best and brightest projects. No one every posts pictures of their flubs, their flops . . . their (gasp) "failures". That's just not reality.
We all "fail" at something sometime. And these so-called failures should be celebrated not shunned - relegated to the scrap pile or the junk heap of life. After all, if you fail right, you learn something every time.
- You learn to clip corners before you turn something right side out.
- You learn to adjust the thread tension on your sewing machine.
- You learn to put right sides together.
- You learn how to use fusible interfacing.
- You learn rotary cutter technique.
- You learn . . .
And let's face it . . . isn't there something in you that feels like success is even sweeter after failure?
