I know how you feel, but I am not that way now. Quilting has taught me a lot and given me a lot of self-confidence. My dear sister taught me to sew and to quilt and when I was making my first quilt I was getting frustrated with something (I can't even remember what it was now) and she said, "Stop stressing it is the little mistakes that make it hand made and special." She was right. I quilt now for my own satisfaction. I do give most of my things away to friends and family but I do this for me.
