I quilt for PLEASURE not perfection...perfectionists have heart attacks and strokes...I have great low blood pressure and answer only to myself when quilting...The therapy I gain from hand quilting is unmatched by any therapy session...LOL Join the fun club and leave the perfection to those who wish to leave us early !!! :D :D :D
