Humility ... as in having to decide whether to laugh or scream when you beautifully paper piece a border only to realize you used the wrong colors ... so patiently picking up another piece of paper and beautifully repiecing it only to realize you not only did it again but with a different set of wrong colors? :shock:

will i say i can't? ever?

nope. i'll remind myself that i'm not perfect (who knew?) and to pay better attention while i print some more paper, write a note to a quilter friend the whole world can see (and therefore share the frustration and laughter), then dive back into my scraps. i think this time i'd better find the rights scraps first, set the others out of reach, then start to piece in "joyful anticipation" of my next boo-boo.

i am obviously too easily distracted by shiny objects and pretty colors. :wink: :mrgreen:

P.S. Combinations, permutations, calculus and trig. AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll consider those when i'm 95 ... IF i've run out of excuses by then.
