I hate to ask but is this part of the quilting art dying out?
How many are still out there doing this amazing part of the quilting art?
How long before you had confidence in your skills?
I love to do needle turn also. I am a Civil War reenactor and I was taught at one of our events. I love the feeling of continuity with the past. Just tell yourself that quilters have been doing this for a very long time and that you are honoring them with your efforts. It doesn't have to be perfect; just done with love.
