    My #1 tip and sometime mantra: NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING is perfect and my quilt won't be either. So do the best I can at the moment and (try to) quit stressing over seams that don't match!!!!!

    Patticake,

    Do you mind if I print this off to share it with my guild tomorrrow. We sometimes forget quilting is an enjoyable process and not an job.
