Quilting is a lot like life-ism #2

When you look at a quilt you have finished, you can pick out every mistake in it.  Other people may look at it and see it as the beautiful project it is.  But all we see are the mistakes we've made.  Forgive yourself for past mistakes.  A few people may remember some of your mistakes, but only you remember them all.  And you are the only one who knows how imperfect a piece is.  Accept compliments for a piece that has been well done, and don't point out the flaws.  Forgive yourself, don't let the fear of making a mistake paralyze you, making you unable to do anything at all.  After you make a mistake learn from it!
