I have been quilting exactly one year this month. I am finally starting to figure it out. Have been watching video tutorials and have picked up so many little tricks I did not get initially. Like the pressing, not ironing. I realized that to be a quilter you cannot stress out over ripping and redoing. It is part of the process. I sure feel less frustrated a year into this hobby. My sister, my teacher and mentor, told me mistakes will teach me. She was right. I have had many of those frustrating moments the past year. You are not alone.
