I Will Never Again........

I had been hard on myself when I first started out, and coming here was the best place I could ask for. The encouragement fantastic. Finally understanding that no ones perfect set in. So, I do my best and the family I give my quilts to love them.

Isn't there some saying or psycho thing that the people who point the finger at others are just trying to deflect the attention away from themselves because they really are not perfect?
I thought of that with your comment that the women labeled good quilters didn't have the best product...they must not have thought anyone would notice with their good reputations!

Sounds like you could create circles around that person. Creativity, I think, is the biggest and best part of quilting. Sometime whenyou ae going through a qullting magazine, check the seams and corners. You will be very surprised what passes for 'perfect and publishable'.

you have found out something that will free you to really enjoy your craft from here on out. congratulations.
i discovered many years ago, in relation to my job, that i really knew much more than i thought i did. also, that some of those people that i thought were above me in skill were really faking it or getting by. since then i have had much more confidence in my own skills. this has allowed me to do so much more in all my endeavors.
keep going and never let them see you sweat. (tee-hee)
