What does the Quilting Police look like?
#12
I have seen the quilt police and they look like this puckered mouth short lady with eye glasses on her head. The sounds she makes are clicking of the tongue,hmmmm....then she raddles off all the bad things about the quilt stomps her feet then insults your quilt that you are working on. Ohhhh she also carries a big purse and gives you a ticket.

My quilt police who judges my quilts so harshly looks very much like the lady I see in the mirror. Mind you, this police woman only picks on me. Her voice says "if you are going to put the effort into this, you need to make it your best effort. This seam could be moved over just a whisker."
I wish she would be quiet sometimes.

They typically start with phrases Like : "I would never", or "Is this your first quilt?" or the most obvious "why don't you....."
Or the most offensive "a good quilter would have......"

* you should have's
* pointy fingers
* stern, disdainful looks
and often with beady eyes looking over her nose in the air!
