Brave New World or How We Learn
I'm always amazed at how folks approach or run from new ideas. Thanks to Jerry for passing along this YouTube link.
Take a little look at how a poor old stick in the mud Medieval Monk copes with new technology and then read Jerry's blog for some comments on how we take to new knowledge.
What has this got to do with needlework you say? How many times have we just done things the safe way? Used the stitches we know? Decided there was a "right way" to do needlework and continued doing it forever and ever and ever and ever that way?
This is a good day to do something different! Give it a try, you might like it.
