If you want to feel more successful, be selective when picking a pattern. For example, if you have difficulty matching seams, start with a pattern that doesn't have a lot of matching seams, like Missouri Star's Double Slice Layer Cake quilt. Pick patterns with larger pieces, or squares/rectangles. Those would be easier than triangles. Build your confidence with the easier ones before tackling the harder ones.
Seazteddy, I totally agree with Katier825, very good advice. When I first started quilting the instructor's first advice was there was no perfect quilt, there was only one perfect entity. Enjoy the craft as a release of stress. Have fun with it.
