I used to make dance and pageant costumes. If I pointed out an imperfection to a friend, she replied, ""It won't show on a trotting horse." Meaning a sequin that wouldn't lay perfectly in an underarm seam wouldn't show when in use. Let's apply that to our quilting. Most of our quilts are meant to be used and loved, not inspected.
Lately I have been wearing a elastic strung bracelet on my wrist. If I say anything negative about myself, I snap it. I think it has cut down on my perfectionistic nature. It was to be a rubber band, but when I tried that, I kept wanting to put it away.
Several of these posts made me laugh out loud. Thank you.
