I agree. I recently showed a young woman how to sew a straight seam and helped her make a couple of stuffed birds that had small pieces and curves. They were not perfect...but I gave her encouragement. She makes baby quilts now using panels and loves doing this. She has already sold 2 of the ones she made and now she is teaching her friends to sew and has invited us all to a quilt day party. She is awesome and although the quilts she is making is not pieced or perfectly sewn she is learning and she is spreading the love of sewing to others. We all started somewhere and we all have our level of expertise. Just saying....Encouragement goes a long way and this board is great in helping each other. You have taught me so much.
