Are not always a bad thing
I’ve finished the blanket for the new grandbaby.
One square is upside down
Didn’t notice until I had almost finished
I’ve just decided it can be my Amish bit.
I’ve started the embroidery I traced out in February
I know.
I was stitching away and realised I had traced the picture on the wrong side
Instead of undoing it all and starting again. I cut out all I could. Luckily I hadn’t started on the flowers.
I thought you know. With the white it looks like a real spider’s web
And so it stays
Who said mistakes are bad?
Your Amish bit lol. I bet no one but you will ever notice. The blanket looks lovely. It is a treasure
ReplyDeleteAnd the embroidery!
My works always have mistakes. If they didn't they wouldn't be mine
That’s what makes it us.
DeleteI love the spider's web. It looks great. Definitely intentional ;) I can't tell which square is upside down, so it can't be that noticable. My crafting often turns out not quite as intended, but is often better for it.
ReplyDeleteOh yes. Definitely intentional lol
DeleteOnly Allah is perfect. Persian rugs have to have deliberate mistakes but that makes me wonder if deliberately making the mistake is somehow messing with the talent or skill Allah blessed them with.
ReplyDeleteThat’s what the Amish say only god can make perfection so they intentionally do one square and put it in upside down.
DeleteIf two separate tribes say it. I guess it must be true.

ReplyDeleteAren't mistakes like that also called "happy accidents"?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely
DeleteI don't need to be intentional to make mistakes! But so often you're the only person who notices.
ReplyDeleteIf you look you will see it as it doesn’t look like anything from the wrong angle
DeleteBut it’s hand made not mass produced and this proves it
I been embroidering some quilt blocks, at rate I'm going my granddaughter will be in her 30 time I get it done.
ReplyDeleteI can't see the mistake in the rug and think it looks great. As does the embroidery. Well done you.
