This post has really helped me. I always dread the quilting part of the quilt because I use my Singer machine I bought in 1979 for $79.00. It doesn't have any fancy stitching, just a straight line or zigzag. I have made 3 quilts for family and friends using it but I'm always nervous to get it started. I think we are our worst critic sometimes. I'm going to try to just enjoy what I do and not be so hard on myself.
I always enjoy reading everyone's post and looking at your beautiful quilts. When I finish something I will post a picture. Don't hold your breath though, I'm kind of slow. haha
