It got me thinking though about keeping it real. That my blog can be one show of what I create but there is the other side. The really messy side...
And both of these are good. I mean you can't get the gold without the muck but still. I don't want to forget this hidden side. I don't want to create such a polished blog that I forget the failures.
But most of all, in everything that works well and is put on here and everything that goes wrong and is hidden under the bed, I want to praise him who gave me my creativity.
Keeping it real friends.

I have loads of unfinished projects as well....not to mention being a very messy crafter!!
Fabulous post, Abi :) Great to see a bit of real mess - makes me feel better about my own!! Lovely that you got some well-deserved recognition and positive feedback, I hope you know we all feel the same way? And really good to be reminded of where our creativity comes from in the first place :)
By the way, I loved your watercolour map so much I made my own today! If you're on the LSNED class on Shimelle's forum you can see my version there, but I'll blog it at some point too, giving you all appropriate credit of course :) Thanks so much for the inspiration! xx
i love this post and your honesty. i too make huge errors and commonly only show my ok stuff, but maybe i should photograph my messy scrapbooking stuff and my spare room/office,

Hooray! So glad that you made it! Can't wait to see the blog post. xxx
Hooray for mess and mistakes and honesty!
I had cleaned all my messes but proceeded to create so of course now have more mess and a few more mistakes in the trash. Love your post it on the sewing machine. It makes me happy that you enjoy the Sunday songs :)
