Hello Debbie,
I hope you will not wait too long to get started on this
wonderfully frustrating little design! Perfection is something to
personally strive for, but not necessarily to demand from
yourself. I have been told that when the Amish are working their
needlework, that they put a mistake in on purpose because they
believe perfection belongs only to God.
Still laughing about "frustrating" - I don't think it's THAT bad :-).
Thank you for your explanations! Now I'm totally confused as to how I
should do that edging :-) Putting twists on both sides of the gimp to
make it stand out more (in contrast to make it cuddle against the
cloth stitch) is a good argument - and if it's the traditional method
I'd rather use that.
Nice attitude of the Amish (it could be interpreted as snobbish,
though) - but I'm shure I don't have to put in mistakes on purpose.
They will prolly happen anyway.
Best, Achim.
