Well, said Pumpkin Patch. I am right there with you! The person that treated you rudely has problems and was mean to you - that makes anybody feel bad! I feel the same way you do about quilting. Personally, I wish I could do better - and I am a lot older than you - I keep on going and try my best, and I feel good about it. At least I am not giving up. I give myself a hard time and don't give myself enough credit, I am told. The point is: we are all quilters and enjoy what we do and do the best we can. Thank you for sharing.
