    Oh my goodness! That wall is pure gorgeous insanity!! How did you manage to do all of that with 2 busy kiddos, a business, a home to run and a husband ?!! Voodoo magic??! Every skein looks perfect and right in its place. I sure wish I didn't live thousands of miles away or I'd be there congratulating you on your incredible talent and hard work in person. Well done! Happy Festival!!

    Jana you sound a bit like me in that I have struggled with having a very “all or nothing” attitude about my goals. One time my psychologist said if you achieve 80% of your goal, why are you focussing on the 20% of things you didn’t get done and not the 80% of things that you did? I still struggle with it a lot but I find it helps to focus on what I did get done (which in your case is a whole wall of spectacular yarn 😍😍😍) and not fixate on the things I didn’t have time to finish. Hope you have a wonderful time at the festival!
