Sorry you're feeling so discouraged, I get that way sometimes, too. I had to move away from a wonderfully supportive quilting group (free, too) & haven't found a replacement. But one day I decided to tackle a (small) project I've been wanting to learn to do & I DID IT!! What a boost it was. My husband is now my sole cheering section. So, I suggest you pick a small project, just one square even, focus on the instructions, complete it & post a photo here. Let everyone here be your cheering section. Altho' I don't often post anything I daily read here & feel so encouraged & even part of a quilting group.
