I read those and its was awful. I then read the one someone posted about her sister saying how cute a wall hanging was with her doggie laying on it. People who don't quilt don't get it unless they watch you day in and day out working. Those who are in their own world need a wally world quilt not a hand made one.
There are just as many happy stories however and people who are thrilled to receive something hand made for them. I am of the belief everyone in this swap is going to be so respectful of what they get, and treasure it for the gift that was given. DONT WORRY. Tam moo I think I make a good quilt top, its the quilting I am horrible at lol so everyone is of a different level I think and its perfectly fine. the more we make the better we get
and I happen to know a local quilter here (JABA) who helps me out with quilting when necessary. ITs not against the rules to have it quilted by someone else nor is it a requirement. I stitch in the ditch ok
