Congratulations on finishing one of 17 of 17. <br /><br />I'm just about to start my first Chatelaine. I have all the floss and sparklies, I just need to find the perfect fabric. I will think of your words as I stitch as I have this chart for a while but didn't possess the gumption to start. But I have joined a fb support group and all their beautiful wips inspire me as I know it's possible. We will see how I go :D<br /><br />I'm glad that you not only survived the bullies but triumphed over them. It is true, no one person is better than any, regardless of their background, wealth, or ethnicity. However some feel the need to suppress their insecurities by bullying others. Being happy and living your magical life is the spell that annihilates these people and their attitudes. <br />Take care stunner<br />xo AliciaThe Crafty Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288614696110156747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358298815279665923.post-4099547794594910572017-06-05T19:37:29.925+01:002017-06-05T19:37:29.925+01:00Beautiful stitching this month!

I am glad to read that you ignored the bullies and made a success of your life and talents.<br />My first two projects were Paula Vaughan and my third a Teresa Wentzler! I didn't know enough about stitching to be intimidated by them. Now I stitch for relaxation so I would hesitate to choose something so large and intricate but I know I could do it if I wanted to.Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00232260304792574971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358298815279665923.post-13525808863337925592017-05-31T08:41:16.184+01:002017-05-31T08:41:16.184+01:00Lovely progress, and hooray for the Happy Dance.

I am not intimidated by stitching any either but for the enormous size projects like HAEDs do make me think often whether is it worth the time spent on those. On the other side, I am fine with giving a try to things I want to do but may not be able to succeed. I am ok to waste time there.Preetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14719450107640709790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358298815279665923.post-41887530681150802622017-05-30T00:23:05.452+01:002017-05-30T00:23:05.452+01:00You stitch soooo beautifully!
