Everybody has their own "talent". My mother is an artist - painting the most beautiful oil paintings. She has been doing this for over 50 years. It just dawned on my not too long ago that my mother has never painted an "original" painting in her life. All of her paintings have been copies. She has copied the "masters", copied photographs, etc. But she paints them beautifully! You might not have an original idea for a quilt but you probably make a darned good copy of one that you have seen before in a book or magazine or Pinterest, etc. What is wrong with that? If it makes somebody happy that you give it to, or makes somebody warm?????
