Is perfection stopping you from trying? I'm not referring to your own perfection. I'm talking about the perfection of others.
I absolutely love seeing the amazingly beautiful quilting
that people do on their quilts, or others quilts, if they do it as a
job. Usually the most amazing quilting is done on a long arm machine,
and sometimes it's all quilted automatically - taking out all human
error. But no matter how it's done, that doesn't lessen the talent and
work that is put into the beautiful workmanship.
But I often notice thoughts in the back of my head telling
me that if I can't quilt as beautifully as "those quilters" I shouldn't
even try. I should stick to using my walking foot and quilting straight
or wavy lines.
I hear the thoughts, but I never listen to them.
