When I first joined a guild, at the first show and tell I learned more then from any class or instructor since. One older quilter showed her perfect appliqued and hand quilted quilt, basic basket block style. It was very pretty and everyone said it was perfect and what a great job. Another quilter showed a quilt that got instant gasps and clapping. It was an explosion of color. The quilt was not perfect, the edges waved, the binding was crooked, some block points were cut off but it by far outshowed the perfectly made quilt. I knew then that my goal was not to make a perfect quilt but one that got the clapping. LOL
