Well said, Wesing. I do my best to reach for perfection hile learning along the way but I am a computerized machine. I know I will never be perfectly perfect in all areas of a quilted piece.
I feel my dander rise when I hear someone who is wearing the badge of the quilt police or perhaps a non-quilter comment "look at that corner", or "look at at that missed stitch" or "I could buy a better quilt than that at_____". My internal response is "perfect quilts were not made with human hands. The imperfections show that the piece was made by a human and blessed by a human's creativity and evolving skills."
