    I think this saying will go on all my quilt labels because that's exactly how I feel when I spend so much time on a quilt and knowing who it's for......I love giving hand made gifts but not always sure they know how we feel and this says it.Thanks

    I have never done FMQ, but on smaller projects I found I could do it. It is definitely not perfect but here is how I approach a gift that someone creates for you. My time is something GOD gave me. You cannot purchase my time unless I let you. If I give you something that takes me time to create, then I am giving you a part of myself. If it is not perfect, then it is a constant reminder that neither am I.

    Had to change the word from the to that in the last sentence.
