next time you are freaking out a little just say (outloud works best!)

"Thank you so much, itty bitty committee, but you may be quiet now."


The itty bitty committee are the negative thoughts you are hearing. Sounds silly but it takes all the power away from the negative thoughts!

I have had a similar experience. I asked my sister about colors, she made a choice. I went to a fabric shop on a trip DH and I planned. I did not see anything that I think she would like. I was going to walk out of the store, but, DH found the perfect fabric. Got home, send pics to my sis, she told me...that's a lot of flowers, can you put something more country in it. I decided to make a log cabin, made 2 blocks and she loved them. Go ahead and make the quilt for your son.

Just remember... It is inly thread and fabric. No one is bleeding ( as long as you cut carefully :D) or dying.

That being said, I find my family is blind to the mistakes that shout out to me. Sounds like you have already worked very hard and I believe you can do it! Take a deep breath, maybe walk away from it for a few days, and you will be fine. You're going to do just fine! :)
