thanks for the post I am just learning quilting alto I am a Sr. citizen and have been checking a lot of the viedos and quilting on line and have almost thought of giving it up because I do not think I will every sew a perfect 1/4 inch seam have crocheted for years like it too but have decide to try to make 3 quits for my grown children for xmas so glad to ear I am not the only one who feels ths way so am going to still try to learn all i can but will use common sence and do it the best way i can and when we do that if not perfect will be as near as possible for us
