I took a class with Kaffe Fassett and his most profound statement to us was " If you want a perfect quilt, go buy a machine made quilt." He will even show his imperfections, points cut off, etc. He feels it makes a quilt better to have little imperfections to prove it is really handmade. I totally agree but it bothers me when "Super quilters" demand we do perfection and their quilts are not perfect.
