I have been patient all my life - even surpassed my Dad in that
department! I planted some grass seed in a pot for the cats last week
- that has taken some patience on my part to uncover the shoots this
morning - I wanted to see them react to some fresh growth for nibbling
on - the catnip seeds have only shown 4 shoots so far, after 3wks.
Thats not to say that a week's worth of patience is a big thing but
when the end result is for my furry friends - its a big thing!
Wouldn't you also say that ambition is required to finish your quilt?
I only started my first quilt experience because there was a pattern
available which featured 'owls' - fabric selection was difficult then
because there wasn't much available in my area at that time. I didn't
have today's equipment and I remember making plastic templates and
tracing all the pieces onto my fabrics to cut them out using scissors
- by comparison, that really took patience!
