I guess I am, and have been in a funk feeling like I am wasteing so much money buying nice fabrics to make quilts.
Funnily enough I have just completed a small quilt and, for the first time I have quilted it with stippling. Whilst I am not going to post a picture of it and it isn't perfect - I have done it and I really do think you just have to practise practice. It is for me and I am happy with my accomplishment -- please don't give up !!!
