You could have something there.

Plus, there seems to be the perception that striving for excellence robs the process of its joy or fun. This is definitely not true for me - I am very precise with some things because that's my nature. And like I said, it makes the work easier when it's going together neatly and evenly and precision and care results in a more professional look when it's done. I love putting the care into it - that is actually part of the fun of it. I wish I could care as much about the appearance of my studio because it's a wreck! It always looks like a tornado just blew through.

I don't care to judge what anyone else does with their quilting - this is what is fun and rewarding for me.
