It seems that people who start sewing via garments struggle more with perfection and willingness to put a pattern and color combos that are enchanting in a quilt but we would never wear as clothing. Also, if they were in 4-h or similar programs or competitions as kids they are most stressed over perfection. My mom was a basket case doing her first couple quilts and then we solved the color/pattern anxiety by buying from a coordinated line. But if the points not not match up exactly she simply cannot move past it. She tears out at 1/16" imperfection. It....must....be.....fixed. Lol. Most garment folks in the local quilt group are the same way.
