This is a quote from one of Bonnie's Blogs that I copied! I thought it was perfect for me, and maybe it will make you all feel better about your quilting.

"STOP worrying that this seam or that one is a thread width '”OFF!” It’s not about the imperfections in ONE block by itself that a quilt should be judged or even viewed by. The quilt top needs to be viewed as a whole, from about 6 feet away in order to fully appreciate what each individual block does in playing its part in this symphony of fabric, color, contrast and design. Hand crafted does not, will not ever mean PERFECTION. The pursuit of excellence is worthy, the pursuit of perfection is INSANE. IMPOSSIBLE….."

You should see my last year's RRCB Mystery Quilt! There are many chopped of triangle tips! But you know what, when it is all put together, you really don't notice them. Everyone looks at the quilt as a whole, not each separate unit. And this year, my triangles look so much better!
