A little recognition goes a long way especially to a newbie. I love quilting and would give up cleaning house if I could, someday I will have more confidence, something we all could use I suspect.
Wow, I teach quilting in my home. I would never call a student a "Problem Child". I always tell my students to do "their" best not my best. We have a saying in my church that goes like this. "We are not perfect, just progressing". I teach if you can learn from a mistake, it is a lesson well learned. I am sorry you are not enjoying the learning process.
