Keep your chin up and try, try again. I know you'll get it. Besides, the Lord truly does give to those who keep trying, pray before you begin and you'll do amazing patterns!Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13131066090553804130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424212335635436938.post-33131393848866218352011-07-12T19:16:02.078-04:002011-07-12T19:16:02.078-04:00Well if it makes you feel better, I can't crea...Well if it makes you feel better, I can't create a pattern of anything. Just ain't for me. And I can't look at something and just make it either. I envy those of you who can. Guess thats why there are so many patterns for sale, for dummies like me. And even then sometime I have a hard time figuring them out. But don't give up. I'm with everyone else. You may just have too much on your plate right now. Once things are settled down, try again.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17994753291659176298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424212335635436938.post-12281904173637575842011-07-12T17:01:03.391-04:002011-07-12T17:01:03.391-04:00Hi Wendy, Yes, dear, take some time of to regroup...Hi Wendy, Yes, dear, take some time of to regroup and rewind.

It may be difficult at first, but you'll get the hang of it soon enough and think what was I complaining about. Also why not ask some questions of other pattern designers....I don't think they got their start without some help from others. Good luck.<br /><br />Ddee begghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03454376668751849560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424212335635436938.post-50375862756091454172011-07-12T15:45:30.962-04:002011-07-12T15:45:30.962-04:00This might not be the season for pattern making bu...This might not be the season for pattern making but don't give up.

And sometimes distance, time, and space can do wonders....two weeks isn't far off - It'd take me 2 years to pack up this place!! Maybe your "head" is telling you in a subtle way what you need to do at this point in time....But don't give up!

I think that sometimes the key is to take a break and let things percolate a little bit. Let it go while you have so much else going on and maybe give it a go later. I know you are a talented gal, so I hope you don't give up just yet!!LibbiesHomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07570859397997305424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424212335635436938.post-76665353149685466682011-07-12T12:42:33.762-04:002011-07-12T12:42:33.762-04:00Don't give up just have a break till you get m...Don't give up just have a break till you get moved and settled. If I look at my doll patterns, I see they all are the same body, arm leg construction...And are all easy to change slightly to what I like, fatter,thinner,longer legs etc. I believe a lot of pattern makers do this, as long as the finished copy is not exactly the same. Then it's just a case of detailed drawing, good instructions and a good pic of the finished product. What are you having probs with. I got lots of time to think while my paint and varnish dries...and in this heat/humid it's slow going...Raspberry Hill Craftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988288180574040899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424212335635436938.post-88342875230379626592011-07-12T12:41:30.994-04:002011-07-12T12:41:30.994-04:00I know what you mean...tried many times to create ...I know what you mean...tried many times to create patterns but they are never what I would buy much less sell....I guess we need to know our limitations!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6424212335635436938.post-57946477217710443542011-07-12T12:09:50.398-04:002011-07-12T12:09:50.398-04:00Wendy don't give up try it again when you don&...Wendy don't give up try it again when you don't have so much on your mind.
