I feel as you do. I had, and still do, so many things that was not finished because of the project not being "perfect" and I have thrown so many things in the garbage because I thought they were not good enough. Then I met this woman that owns a quilt shop just a few miles from me and that's when I changed my way of thinking about the whole ordeal. Now I'm having the time of my life and am learning so much as I go along, so many things never were finished because I gave up and for quite some time I stopped quilting and just sewing all together. She opened my eyes and now my quilting is getting better because I have stopped giving up. They still have mistakes, but so what. There was only one that was perfect and he'll be back to get his people soon I believe. Please enjoy and have the time of your life. I am.
