One of our pastors yesterday stated that when we compare ourselves to others we either end up arrogant (feeling superior) or envious (feeling inferior). He was talking about truly loving others and not comparing ourselves to others accomplishments, etc. Think it pertains to quilting as well. I used to go to guild meetings but would leave feeling that my work was not as beautiful and well done as what I was seeing in trunk shows there. It is true, but I am okay with that now. I do the best I can and that is all I can do anyway. Blessings.
