To intentionally set a block in wrong would be a "false humility block," in my opinion, because what it says is that I have to set out to do something imperfectly because I'm so good that I will otherwise make something that's perfect. :shock:
Don't worry about the imperfections. Do whatever you do with a cheerful heart and your best effort and God will make it beautiful. :)
I don't have to "intentionally" make mistakes, they take care of themselves. I try to remember to enjoy the process and remember the love that is going into the quilt. I know that I'm not perfect (and the older I get, the "less perfect" I become). Failing eyesight and arthritis has a lot to do with it, as does priorities. But I must admit, it took many years to learn these lessons.
