Quilting is coping. There is nothing more satisfying than finishing a block, a quilt top, a binding. If the quilting makes me upset, I just have to get up and get out, take a drive, change my focus. I stitched two rows of roses upside down on a customer's quilt yesterday, and a trip to the fabric store for a couple of fat quarters calmed me down so I could get busy when I came back home.
