Challenge
So I just wanted to share a bit about challenges. Just because there was something in my life I always wanted to own. I wanted to have a long maxi-skirt and I just could not afford one. I mean they are so expensive and honestly, I didnt even know where to look coz Im not much of a shopper (I am more like a second-hand shopper but how big is the chance to find something like that from a 2ndhand?). So I was longing for a long skirt for some years already.
A few months ago I was just going through some random pages and something caught my eye. A tutorial for a short skirt. I opened it and I made myself translate the lesson into Estonian. And a few hours later I had made my first skirt ever. Now call it a beginners luck or whatever but for me it was a challenge. I mean I knew I could NOT do smth like this. Its almost always the same, before I start something I have to go through this stage of denial and the stage of "I cant do this" and probably quite a few more stages. Anyway there I was, wearing my first skirt which didnt turn out bad AT all.
So some weeks passed and I was asking myself a question. "Can I make a long skirt? Will I be able to do that?". So I just marched into our local tiny 2nd hand where they also sell fabric. And I found this beautiful purplish color fabric and I knew this is mine. So I bought it came home and guess what? A few hours later I was wearing my maxi-skirt. And guess what? I know I could make a hundred more just because I took on the challenge and I made it. I went for it and now I have my first maxi-skirt (and I must admit, Im very proud of it!). So there you go. :)
