I am so proud of where miniatures have led me.

It might seem big headed of me but as I reflect on how I reacted recently, to a u turn, I am genuinely proud of myself.

Let me explain, I was revisiting a small sofa and chair set that I had recovered in a material that I loved. Sadly the material frayed very easily and it was a nightmare to manage. I decided to change the way I was covering them but ended up with a clunky amateurish look. I tried to convince myself it was good enough and put it on a shelf until I finished the rest of the room. Yesterday, I had a good look at it and I hated it! I stripped all the cloth off and it felt so good. I didn’t feel any sense of failure, quite the opposite I felt elated that I wasn’t settling for second best. I have no idea at the moment what I am going to do but the one thing I have in spades is time. I will wait, find another fabric or maybe not do it at all

Others may have reached this level of maturity at a younger age but hey everyone has to ride their own way in their own time.
