    I found out that those tops that seem to go together without headache WILL turn on you at some point when you least expect it. So now, I just take the little hickups along the way in stride.

    I had a quilt do that. I put it in a penalty box on my shelf and there it remains, banished and unloved, until it gives in. I will only accept total submission on the quilt's part. So there *sticks out tongue* :-P

    Thanks everyone for your support! I have refocused with your help, like you said "every quilt doesn't have to be a masterpiece". I am going on that!
