My philosophy is to teach the proper way to do things, and then deal with what happens in reality. The secret to having a beautiful quilt is being able to fix what goes wrong. Some students want to rip out the seam until it is right. Others don't. I don't put down the people who are happy with good enough. It is their choice. I do show them how to make allowances where possible and advise them what will look wrong if they choose to not rip. It seems to work. I have people who keep coming back and each time their work looks better. If I had been super tough on them at first, I think they would have not kept up with quilting. They are doing it for enjoyment, not perfection.
