Virtue Part 5

Our 5th Virtue is Humility.

Humility has nothing to do with meekness or weakness, nor does it mean being self-effacing or submissive.

Humility is an attitude of spiritual modesty that comes from understanding our place in the larger order of things.
It entails not taking our desires, successes, or failings too seriously.
Being able to see ourselves as equal to all others and yet being able to learn from others enables us to show humility and not superiority.

Helpful hints and tips.

♥ Take your time, this is a journey, not a race, enjoy every moment of each stitch you create. Remember new skills take time to learn as does learning new stitches.

♥ Read the pattern carefully and familiarise yourself with the abbreviations, all special stitches are listed at the beginning of the pattern and have links to separate US terms video tutorials.
This week we will be making Slanting Clusters and Bead Stitches. I give lots of hints and tips in the videos to help you, but the best tip I can give for bead stitches is to relax, take it slowly and remember to breathe.

♥ Follow the hints, they are there to help you.

♥ Use stitch markers, they are your friend and will keep you on the right path.

♥ Check your stitch count after every repeat, it is essential to the shape of this design and will save having to rip/frog your work. The only frogs we want are the kind that turns into a Prince!

♥ Use the videos to help you if you need to. Video tutorials are in US terms.
