I refuse to be picky. My LAQ knows this. My quilts are not perfect. I rely on her professional judgement to fix/make adjustments and if it is a significant problem, I will pay more. I also send my quilts across the country to be quilted. I also closely inspect my work before I send it in. Life is too short to worry about everything. I have been very happy with all 4 quilts she had LAQ'ed.
