I love the detail of the process of sewing a pattern to perfection, but I lack the confidence that I will develop the patience to be able to do it well and it keeps me from actually following thru will all the ideas I have.

One day..............
Start with something small. Not tiny small but a small piece. A table runner or a wall hanging. You can practice on just one quilt block and practice sewing just that one together and decide on a border and use it as a starting point.
Or you could do a hot pad or some other small project. I did some tutorials on small projects and there are probably more out there.
If you want any help or suggestions just let me know! I would be glad to help.
