Be Brave.



I don't want to get all deep and mushy, but I could definitely do with working some bravery into my life. And now here is a little hoop to remind me. I actually had tonnes of fun stitching this. I'm super happy with how it turned out. I can see myself getting loads better and faster at embroidery. Next, I'm planning to work in a variety of different stitches. What do you think? Need a little bravery yourself?

  2. I love the idea of creating embroidery that inspires you and pushes you to improve yourself. I've been thinking I need an inspiration board above my desk. Maybe I should embroider one, as well.

    It's funny, in many ways I'm really brave. I've done a lot of things that have pushed my out of my comfort zone in the last eight years of my life (since high school ended), but in other ways, I let fear hold me back. I agree, bravery is needed... and wanted. :)

    1. Great idea! I'm going to make a few like this with other mottos for family and friends as Christmas gifts.

      Thats the same with me! Sometimes I need that extra push to do what I really want.
