I totally felt it when:
My pens were basically died out.
My "genius" shower idea didn't work at all.
Realized hhat I don't have any usable rulers.
And just went through all the lines I wanted to keep.

This time I couldn't scan it, so photo it is.

Honestly I was confused a second and wanted to draw one of the trolls from Lord of the rings - the ones that Bilbo turned into stone. I wanted to have cute colored flowers growing on them and such - then I realized that I was waaay of...

I've learned a lot of unnecessary information about small fishing and military boats. Basically every seashore used them.
About what kinda sails they have in storm (reefed), and what is a full English rig (with a triangular storm sail).
But this sketch isn't that.

BTW Is there a word for being overly enthusiastic to pick up a challenge and make it harder "for fun"?

There were choices made. They were regretted about 30% in.
But at "100%" I was quite happy.

I did resist to make the easiest/worst joke about size!

I'm quite proud of this one. I usually only buy discounted plants - because if / when I kill them, I don't feel that guilty.

When I got it, it was a mess: had a baby offshoot and was rotting from one arm/leaf. I was afraid cutting it - it took me two cuts til it dried out and started it's recovery.
Now my problem is to try to keep it's arms straight - haven't found a solution yet.

I had it finished for a while, but took me a long while to rinse it and iron it.
I was planning on putting it into a picture frame, but I ran out of frames.
Learnt some stuff along the way - probably trained eyes can spot them.
I'm not unhappy with it, I just don't really like the pattern and the non-existent instructions. I do not recommend this kit.
