Dear PumpkinPatch, I agree with you! As long as I am pleased with the quilt that I make (I looked back on some of my quilts and still like them) then I am happy because I know that I put a lot of thought and work into it even if the quilting part isn't every 1/8 inch and the pattern was "simple". I know that it will hold together when it is washed and dried and I hope that whoever uses it will use it enough so that they will have to wash and dry it.
