I am writing down your quote as my quilting teacher is so hard on me by refusing to accept anything but my very best (whether it is my best or not) and I always feel kind of beat down after messing up in her class, she calls me her "Problem child" but the other day she said...it isn't you today Sherrie, and I beamed. A little recognition goes a long way especially to a newbie. I love quilting and would give up cleaning house if I could, someday I will have more confidence, something we all could use I suspect.
