Anne !!!!
sloppy ????and who exactly says that ??? iYears ago i embroidered a
work showing the "lights of Haifa " , as i saw it when we came back
from the north , [ Haifa is a mountain city] , over time i saw that
night lights vary from white to Orange ,,, i used sewing threads ,
embroidery threads , hand and some machine stiches ..on a heavy black
Silk ,,,I offered it to participate in an exhibition about "light"....
the curating lady said ,, " one can see you made it when you didn`t
know how to embroider !!!! i smiled said nothing ,, Lately the work
was chosen abs shown in Indiana South Bend University ,, Same curator
was `surprrised ` to hear it was chosen ,,,, as "we both know it isn`t
a good work!!!" Same as first time i smiled ,, It is not my problem
that she has a Set mind about how work should be done !!! others think
otherway.... But i have to tell you that you have to set some of your
own rules about you work ,, and follow them ...

You may worry about changing things but I worry that my stitching is 'sloppy'.
On the other hand, those 'imperfections' add character.
