So how I feel!

A quick break from sewing and photographing....

I just came across this and had to share. It really expresses how I feel;

"when i give a gift i made myself
first i feel proud, excited
and thoughtful
then i feel embarrassed
and silly
and then i feel like i've
given the best present
i could give....
a part of me....
and then i feel
embarrassed again."

  1. I can so relate to this too! When I make something I go from thinking it is great to thinking it is crappy lots of times and when you decide to give it as a gift it is much worse!We are really very hard on ourselves!Cheers

Thank you for taking time to comment, I treasure each and everyone one of them. I always reply to them in my head, but must confess, these days it takes me much longer to actually email that reply.
