    LOL! I think this is a great question. I am so stressed when I put my blocks together because I think of how hard it is to get them straight, will the quilt pucker if it's not perfect, and my mind goes on and on. Once I get going, I'm better, but I stress down to the last stitch. The blocks are fun to do, though! I think I should work on wholecloth so I have less stress, but there are so many pretty patterns to put together!!!

    :D You know what makes it perfect. YOU making them their own quilt. They are not the junior quilt police. They will have something that is made with love by their mother. You have done great so far. Take a deep breath and just think what your son's face will look like when you are done. We are all behind you cheering.BrendaK

    So far, you've done very well, just jump in there with both feet and get wet. You'll be surprised how easy it is after you are finished and take a look at it.

    I don't stress until it is time for the binding. Binding is a downfall for me.
