I started this xstitch 'belt' hoping that it would be a wearable piece of craftivism but I've messed up it up so many times I'm not convinced its worth finishing.
what do you think? All of the hearts are different shades of red= oops! the letters arent all on the same lines = oops! and it takes so long to do I'm struggling to find the energy and motivation to carry it on = oops! :s
I thought i would xstitch about a metre long and then just pin it on black dresses as a belt. It would include other words like empowerment and freedom and whatever else fits on the end.
maybe it will look less threatening because its wonky, maybe it will be more of a conversation starter because it looks homemade or maybe its just really lame and will look embarrassing if i wear it.
hmmm....decisions decisions.

Finish it! Finish it! It's gorgeous!
I reckon noone will notice/mind very much if it's a bit wonky. Is there any reason at all it should be perfect? I think not!
It is indeed a lovely thing to make. Can't wait to see the finished project.
xox
i too think you should finish it!
yep, I think you should finish it. xxx
If you don't want it I'll have it! please please please! xxx
the selfish comment was from me....hmmmm.not sure I'm in the spirit of things but it was supposed to be encouraging and show my pride in my little sis! and i would wear it and show it off and tell people about it who gave me funny looks - promise!
your big sis xxx
My goodness, don't lose heart - finish it. Those little things you see as faults are marks of your own hard work and craft as you made it.
Finish it!
