When I first started, I wanted perfection and beat myself up when things did not go right. Now, that I am older (and can't see quite as good), I strive for perfection, but settle for my best! A hard lesson learned!

That is a good attitude. I can imagine what quilters think of my work. But I try so hard just to be able to understand the instructions. I'm making table runners so I can learn to read instruction and put them together.
Their pretty but I am certain lots of flaws and some puckering. But I am learning.
I take two classes in one day for 7hrs. I think I will learn much.
Happy quilting! Be grateful for what we can do!

The walking foot, basting carefully, more tension, less tension, whatever. It is of no avail. I'm like the kid in "Sixth Sense": I see puckers everywhere.
