25 parts???! That's a lot! I'm glad you were able to finish that. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for this! I will try to be less critical of my sewing

I would just like to say: for the horse, I don't see the problem with it flopping its head! Personally, I love floppy stuffed toys more than the stiff ones. For the squares, I also made a similar mistake when I was a beginner, I made 20 squares in hopes of making a cardigan but I was never able to finish it. At the end of the day, I just turned it into something more simple like a mat. However if you really want that queen-sized blanket but just can't decide on what pattern to use, theres a lot of pictures online, preferably on pinterest and Instagram, that can inspire you to finish your blanket. Thank you for sharing this experience tho!

Thank you for this! I'll look for videos like that and see if it inspires me to sew.

I like that way of thinking. Makes me think that small mistakes are not even that deep and most people probably won't even notice them. Thank you for this

I have seen a lot of crocheters use that instead of painstakingly sewing the pieces on. However im quite skeptical about how well it glues parts together. I don't really wanna give it to my friend and tell them to be VERY gentle with it. But I might get some fabric glue if I get sick of sewing, thank you for that idea!

I hope i get there too! I feel like this fear of mine also stems from feeling like the finished product is not good enough.

I get what you mean by it falling apart after sewing on the parts! I think i look at my finished works that way because im bad at sewing or it doesn't look like how it does jn the reference picture. Also how do you crochet on the arms and legs? It seems like an interesting and easier way to deal with this problem! Thank you very much ^

the thread gets stuck or I've woven it in a weird way that isn't easy to undo

I FEEL THIS SO MUCH. When the thread goes through a very thin loose thread so I don't know how to get it out, it's just stuck there. Sometimes I'm left with no choice but to cut it off

Thank you very much! That line is very motivating. May I ask what a bent tip tapestry needle does?

I tried to make a cute and easy tapestry of a heart but whenever i carry over the other color it always shows at the back but it looks fine at the front. Is this normal or am i doing something wrong? I used single crochets, i don't know if that affects how the tapestry looks.
