I'm getting frustrated. My hands don't work like they used to and I'm making a mess of things. Especially the Ballerina. Gah! 😩 I decided to skip it and go back later with a clear head. But then I messed up the dark busters and now I have decided to use only pencil and scratch paper until I get it right. No, I am not trying for perfect but something clean looking would be great. Your teaching is awesome and I will eventually get it. I have psoriatic arthritis and it is making this difficult. Thank you so much for the instructions. ✌🏻💟😁📝🇺🇸
Keep in mind that I do several hours of practice before I teach a pattern. I watch videos if I can find them, and I look at examples on social media or the Mosaic app. There are many times that I have been frustrated, and this pattern was a challenge to me also. I promise I don't get it right on the first try! My hands also don't work as well as I age. I used to draw some tiny details, and I can't do that anymore. Try to be gentle with yourself and don't judge too harshly.
@@notperfectzen I put a lot of pressure on myself. Switching to using pencil first helped. It is less stressful when I know I can erase. Of course, I just started this last month. I studied art in college many many years ago so I let that go to my head. I think practice and more practice is what I need to do instead of jumping into Inktober the first month. I'm switching to a pad instead of wasting tiles. Anyway, thank you for the lesson I learn something new every time I watch. ✌🏻💟😁📝🇺🇸
Thank you Barbara for all your thoughtful preparation. Fun to be doing this challenge with you!
You are so welcome! 🥰 I’m very happy that you’re enjoying it. ❤️❤️
I like this one, Barbara. I'm eager to make this into a longer ribbon. Your three completed tiles look wonderful all together.
Thank you. 😊 It’s fun to have three finished tiles! 🥰
Thanks Barbara ❤
You’re welcome! 🥰❤️
Thank you Barbara, I am falling behind but will catch up soon.
No worries! You can do these anytime. Take your time and enjoy each pattern. 🥰
Looks great. After you finish, can your turn it over and draw in the blank triangles?
Yes you could draw it again in the empty space. 😊
You may be able to sharpen your smudgy stick. It depends on your sharpener.
The end on this one is a little too soft. I really just need to replace it, LOL!! 😊

Sounds like it does need to be retired. 😁
