STOP. NO. STAY RIGHT HERE. :lol: I was a sewer. And now a "quilter." You'll learn to relax and "go with the flow." When you've got a quilt in mind, pull out the fabrics and see what's available for that particular quilt. I still have hang-ups about working with scraps, but I have high hopes I will overcome that hurdle.
I think the thing is here that there is some madness to our "organization." And some of us (definitely not me) have proven to be more organized than others. But there is still a lot ot spontanaity in our lives. Stick with us -- we're having fun.
