Hello and welcome from SC..And yes, it sure can strike fear..It does to me too..Especially when I have to make the first cut into a beautiful fabric..I am a first time quilter and in the process of making 2 quilts right now..So my fear is still going on :D ..One thing that I have learned from this wonderful group is that a quilt does not have to be perfect, and that with each cut and each stitch we are growing and learning..And that keeps me going..Knowing that if I mess up, someone here can always help me to fix it..
