Why has it got to be perfect? My philosophy is this: If someone sees all the errors, they are looking too close or if it can't be seen from a galloping horse, it doesn't matter!! Unless you are entering a competition--heaven forbid, as far as I'm concerned--just enjoy the quilt however you can get it together. To be useful and beautiful all the seams do not have to match. For goodness sake, cut off your perfection bone! froggyintexas
