I love your honesty - just ...You crack me up, Lucy! I love your honesty - just don't beat yourself up to the point that you won't do it anymore. A couple of things that helped me keep FMQ in perspective that may help you -- you probably won't be using such high contrast thread when you quilt so the little wonkies won't show as much. Also, I noticed that once I washed my quilts some of the little wonkies disappeared completely into the quilts crinkles - love that! In my book, FMQ is supposed to be a little wabi sabi. Lastly, each design will always have your own signature on it and won't look exactly like someone else's. It may not be stomach lining, but when you need a chrysanthemum design, you've got a great one there. ;)M-R Charbonneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02089657334279122457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842721577085503845.post-68658493575442164682011-11-11T15:05:22.271+00:002011-11-11T15:05:22.271+00:00**chuckle** You make me laugh with your commentary...**chuckle** You make me laugh with your commentary on FMQ!
