Oooh ahhhh! The quilting blues! Its so hard to be perfect! There has been so much good advice on this page, I hesitate to add anything. However, I really think you should not be so hard on yourself, and definitely not give up. You should see some of my cutting and sewing!! That would make you feel better! As long as there is love in every crooked stitch and wavy line, it DOESN'T MATTER! I do hope you decide to keep going, I'm sure your quilts are beautiful - how about posting a couple? I'd love to see them. She'll be right mate - you aren't alone!
