Jory, Thanks for rresponding. I have tried & tried. I have the video almost memorized LOL. I tend to be too much of a perfectionest, I really think this is my problem. My hubby & kids say I have OCDC. But of course I think they are wrong. I would really like to be able to sit down with someone. I had a guy come here to spray the house for bugs & he saw my quilting & told me his Mom & Grandma quilt everyday & they live near by. Guess what I am thinking??? I guess I will just have to call them. LOL Do you use the Aunt Becky's? Thanks for the encouragement. Guess I am just too impatient. I want to quilt perfectly NOW. Donna, The Rustic Quilter.
