I totally agree with this response. And don't be hesitant to pick out stitching that isn't right. I've never regretted it unless I found I had it right in the first place. LOL

I have learned that it never hurts to ask a question as long as you are asking this group I have learned that everyone here is willing to help and also willing to admit that they may be wrong after all everyone does things differently and no question is to silly THANK YOU ALL FOR THAT

I'm with you. I'm doing a simple 9 patch, but I'm taking my time. Ironing (with starch) enjoying the feel of the fabric and how nicely things are matching up (most of the time). Maybe the artistic side of me is enjoying things more.

I have learned that I really do matter to the folks on this site and that quilters respond with great compassion, understanding and helpful suggestions when I feel inadequate about my quilting.

I've learned that x amount of hours spent on this board are equal to x amount of hours I am neither quilting nor doing housework. I've also learned that it'll all work out ok in the long run and I can stay on the quilting board as long as I want to as long as no one mentions it to my DH. 8-) :-D
