Ok, first of all you are somewhat new at this and so I will tell you one of the things that are the most important when it comes to quilting or anything. Most are not happy no matter what they make. We always let others tell us what is good and not. So take your time and start over but limit yourself to a hour or two at a time and then, you will start to see the difference. If it is classes you want then go for the beginners and if there are places around you to visit then go look and enjoy. In the meantime, know that some way around the time we started to where we are now is time.........Enjoy...
