Someone said on another thread "perfectionists should not quilt". I am a perfectionist that is far from perfect. It is a burden, as someone else said. My quilting has gotten better over the years, but never good enough for me. My sister always quoted the galloping horse thing, but it didn't help. But I think this thread helped me a lot. It seems every time I work on my quilt, I stress so much I decide to give all my fabric away and sell my machine, I have tried to work on my "problem" before but it apparently has been engrained in me since I was born. After reading the 15 pages, I realize why I am not enjoying the process. I am going to try to relax more and enjoy the process, I wish there was a 12 step program for us. Did I mention I am impatient, too. That is a dealy combo.
Of course I know all your quilts are perfect. Actually I love homemade things from somone else, and I love the imperfections, go figure.
