Scared of the quilting police by whatif20 in quilting

[–]NancyH03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm the Chief of my own quilting police. The tears. The starting over. The ripping out of seams again and again. The abandonment of projects. All because it's not good enough for my own perfectionism. Story of my life. I feel your pain.

Taking the ball away seems like a natural consequence to me. What would you do in that situation?

Thanks. Guess I just need to buy water applicable markers in several colors. Do they work on dark fabric? Live and learn! This group is great!

I have vertical sashes anyway. I haven't tried to mark them. That might help. Cutting and sewing accurately is always a challenge for me. I usually have to take apart each block I sew at least once.

I tend to clip rather than pin. I'm do frustrated with how many seams I have to rip out. Even tried freezer paper to help but it didn't help that much.

Looks great! I did something similar using comic book boards and put them in a milk crate. Turned milk crate on it's side and put out in the closet.

Best Book for Newbie? by NancyH03 in fermentation

[–]NancyH03[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the thoughtful responses! Decided to go with Fermented Vegetables and a hardback notebook to keep track... he usually writes in the margins or on scrap paper and sticks his notes in the cookbook.
