I understand,, I am have taken classes where the instructor watched me sewing and gave constructive criticism, it was okay, but it did make me rather anxious... I agree she should give you some positive feedback also. I don't mind anyone sharing a better way to do things, but if you don't want the help, maybe you should just let her know that your quilts are not gonna be judged so you really don't want them picked to pieces LOL maybe you should ask her who died and left her the scrolls, (just kidding)that would probably make her mad
