So for a few months now we have all been working on making squares for the afghans and it is going very well. I have learned so much from so many people. But there is nothing like tried and true practice. So I am trying and I am practicing but I will tell you this scalloped edge I am trying to do around these squares is a little harder then I thought it would be. If you get interrupted all the numbers are off and I have to start my count over and sometimes it looks like I have more then I do and well lets just say I have had to pull it out and start over a few times. I think that I am getting the hang of it but I don't think it will look as good as the others for now. But with time I will improve. It is just as warm with a few mistakes as it would be if the trim was perfect. And as one of my sisters wrote when she sent me a sweater that each mistake was a stitch of love. Well there such is a lot of love stitched in this afghan. I suppose it is like all the other things we do I may not be perfect but if I keep trying and I do it with love in my heart then the results will stitched with love. So stitch your day with love.
