I hate SID...do it very seldom. And the people I make quilts for just love the stippling. Little do they know that it is so easy. They ask..."How do you put all those little curli qu designs in there"? HaHaHa!!!! Let them keep thinking that design is really really hard. I'll never tell!!! What they don't know won't hurt them...just make me feel gooooood!!! So don't be so critical of your work...whatever you do you are creating something that a lot of people cannot do!!! Just go for it.
