As I like to think when I'm quilting, imperfections prove that a real person made it!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04634833095160834584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199782591407305748.post-51936230840200913342010-05-30T20:37:32.833-05:002010-05-30T20:37:32.833-05:00No Breanna!

I'm sure mine will be imperfect (although it will probably bother me!). I haven't tried making mine yet; I'm going to hold a friendship bracelet making party and am going to try to find tutorials to pass out at the party.Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10613891612248674894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199782591407305748.post-32809824030042257832010-05-29T12:59:44.165-05:002010-05-29T12:59:44.165-05:00I definately had to google and find a simple tutor...I definately had to google and find a simple tutorial as I'd never actually made these when inwas younger! it didn't turn out quite as pictured, but I figured they're not meant to look store bought, right?breannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00000677900186433619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199782591407305748.post-48090401749414962052010-05-26T14:49:32.911-05:002010-05-26T14:49:32.911-05:00My husband and I just moved, and during all of my ...My husband and I just moved, and during all of my packing I ran across my stash of half-finished friendship bracelets from 15 years ago.

The first attempt looks all chewed at the top. I messed up the stitch in the beginning somehow. The second attempt I got the stitch right, but then it came out too short even though I used the same length of thread as the first one (which was the perfect length). I'm gonna keep playing with them. They're super relaxing to make!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
