Hard nut to crack
There is no doubt, nowadays everyone has a hectic schedule so I love to do various activities because these activities provide relaxation to my exhausted mind such as artwork, participating in competitions, traveling, cooking, and so on.
Today, I would like to describe one such activity that I did as a school student. There was a school competition at my school and our teacher asked us to do thread painting during the weekend.
Since I had never made a thread painting before, I thought it would be a herculean task for me but with the help of my mother, making a painting was actually just a piece of cake.
Well, to be frank, my memory fails me and I cannot recall the exact date when I attended the craft activity but I am sure it must be at the high school. I made a thread painting with the help of a needle and wool and it was on a cloth. I bought everything ready-made from the market. On the piece of cloth, I traced all the village scenes. On the one side, there was a well, and ladies were getting water from it. On the other side, farmers were doing work in the field.
It seemed to be arduous work or in the beginning, it was a hard nut to crack as it took 4 to 5 days to finish it but finally, it turned out to be quite rewarding. I got first prize and our hard work paid off. My teacher was also very satisfied with my work and praised me.
Ultimately, I did it with my mother because it was impossible for me without my mother’s assistance.
