This week’s SBQ was suggested by Ish and is:
What has been your most challenging project and why?
I think I would have to say the “Passing Admirers” was my most challenging project. It wasn’t particularly difficult to stitch, but when I decided to stitch it my entire outlook on stitching changed.
Before “Passing Admirers,” I was used to stitching small projects that I could finish in days or weeks, not months or years. Stitching (and eventually completing) it taught me the patience I needed to have in order to stitch BAPs.
“Passing Admirers” also brought about my rotation system and kept my interest active in stitching. Since then I have attempted a variety of ways to rotate my projects, but I always have a rotation.
I guess I could say that in addition to being my most challenging project, “Passing Admirers” was also a significant factor in my stitching evolution.




Sue says:
It sounds like it was a big influence. I’m still trying to get a good rotation system to work. Unfortunately I never seem to get past the whatever is screaming the loudest and appeals the most gets worked on stage.

I found this question to be quite cleansing. It’s almost time to get it out of the closet and into my stitching basket!
