I've been thinking about this.....I've decided I'm my own worst quilt police. I've just learned how to quilt as an adult learner and I'm a stickler about following every direction I learned in my quilting class. Since then, I've used this board as my quilting bible and I take everything you all say right to heart. Seriously......what I've learned on here is unbelievable and I owe a lot of thanks to everyone here for furthering my quilting education. Now STOP IT all of you.....don't tell me anymore bad habits! LOL

I saw it and immediately took it, cleaned it up, and told him if we broke up I'd give it back.

I don't have any quilts of my own yet, and that will be a long time to come. But as far as quilt police. I am still trying to learn to quilt, and I guess it would be trying to get everything perfect for the doll quilts. I did glue baste the binding on the last doll quilt I made, and I did not understand about stitching in the ditch on the other side, so It was not my best job. God bless. Penny
