    Does anyone remember the show "Murphy Brown"? She made the comment her 2 year old could do better. I can't remember if it was her or someone else that took the 2 year olds art and displayed it. It was a big hit. The critics loved it. They didn't know a 2 year old did it!

    I agree, we are too hard on ourselves. I think we stifle our imagination with perfection.

    Okay everyone - go forth and create your very own masterpiece!

    Thanks Maria!

    No quilt is perfect. Especially not mine. But I can live with it. (My quilting is a little better than the pic though. ) :-D

    When I started my commercial embroidery business, I too was very critical of my work. I quickly learned to keep my mouth shut and let the customer point out the problems as I saw them. Had VERY FEW say anything and if they did it was something totally different from what I was fussing about. Lesson learned. Most of the time they gushed about how wonder, how great, etc. and all I could worry about was what I perceived as my boo-boos.

    Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, she must of liked it and was ok with it. But as for me, I'm sort of too hard on myself.
