WMUTech, your statement was perfect. Many of us need to hear this. Like you I don’t make perfect quilts. I try to make them as close to perfect as I can. For me the joy is in the making and gifting. In the past I entered quilts in our state fair but after a few years realized I don’t feel the need to have my work judged. No one I have gifted a quilt to has ever asked if their quilt won a ribbon. I’ve sewn in joy, sorrow and everything in between. Sometimes I’ve taken a short break. But I always come back to quilting. I don’t recommend giving everything away. Purge if you feel the need and if it helps make your life more manageable.
