What a wonderful thing weekends are, and even better are extended weekends. My husband and I had a wonderful visit from some friends this holiday. You may be asking what this has to do with design or handcrafts, well I was able to share with my friend the joy of knitting! I had forgotten how fun it is to share what you enjoy. I helped her remember some stitches and showed her how to make knit wash cloths and it was so fun.
So this is my encouragement for the day... be a teacher. Share what you love with those you love. Be understanding and take your time, practice giving clear instructions - and you will have even greater joy in your work.

great post! i've done the same thing with a friend of mine who didn't even know how to use a needle and thread! i was glad to show her how to stitch together a cuff for herself. it's nice to teach people things they didn't know how to do!

ReplyDeleteIt always makes me feel so good to be able to "pass on" those things which I know how to do. It's a great feeling of satisfaction!
