I love these comments.
I have found a pattern with me- I never like what I make that much until later on- after I haven't seen it awhile maybe. It looks so much better!
I also try not to compare my work with others b/c I'm not nearly as good as many but I love to create and it makes me happy. My family think my quilts are works of art but they aren't- but hey! I'll take it :D
