Thanks to all for the encouragement. That is what I like about this board. No matter what the problem there are so many always there to lift your spirits. I certainly did not mean to sound like I was whining, just venting at myself for not being able to perfect that elusive 1/4 inch seam and feeling so stupid because I can't seem to press in the right direction. I am too blessed to complain. God gave me a wonderful family and I just try my best to look after them. God bless all of you.
