It Started Out Fine

I had an idea and I tried it out.

But it *really* didn’t work. It folded over and flared badly.

I kept on going though because this is often the case with Stitchopedias. You know how I tell you NOT to do something? It’s often because I tried it and it was horrible.

So, I Tried Another

This one *was* better. And I considered making it THE one.

I let it go for a day. And it very much was NOT good enough.

While I do have an idea for a Third one, there’s no way I’ll be done in time.

You guys deserve to be sure that if you read it in a Stitchopedia that it’s good.

For now, I have 2 ways of NOT making it. I keep reminding myself of what Edison said – that he didn’t fail, but that he found 2,000 ways of NOT making a lightbulb.

So, no picot cuff for toe-up FOR NOW. I’ll come back to it after I have a break. Right now, I’m reminded of what my mom would say to me when I misbehaved: that she could teach me how to fly – out of a third-story window.
