Maybe I need to clarify a little: I never met a fabric I didn't like and every quilt or block is time consuming. I don't feel like I'm brushing someone off when I say that. Ruth my CRS is bad today I don't remember blues, can't find it either.
I guess in general I feel like we do this because we love it, we love what we do, we know all the problems in our quilt. I would rather have a pat on the back. It's sort of like the woman with a really tight dress asking hubby "do I look fat in this".
I think worse then seeing quilts that needed more attention, I once had a woman call me saying her mother had died and she had some quilts she didn't know what she should do with. She made it sound like they were rags. I almost didn't go look at them. They were beautiful hand applique, hand quilted stunning quilts. I tried to talk her into keeping them. She asked why as if they were used toilet paper.
I would rather give someone compliments then be like this daughter.
