Armymomscorpion as Kadie said, There are NO Quilt Police here!!!!! That God Above! I've been quilting off and on for 10 yrs and just yesterday I noticed that I have some seams not quite matching up on a top I am working on. Instead of ripping them out and re-doing them I just chuckled and went on. I am not perfect, never have been and sure never will be!!!! If you rode by on a galloping horse at 25 miles per hr, know one will notice that the seams don't match perfectly, so it will just have to do. LOL This is something to enjoy doing, not stress over. The top I mentioned will stay at this house anyway sooooo, no big deal. LOL I still learn something with every project I do. To me that is worth it all right there. You are doing very well in my opinion. I really do love that blue one! And I see very few mistakes. Certainly no reason to laugh!!!!!! I have also learned that if the top isn't just so perfect, you can quilt the living daylights out of it and it hides a multitude of sins & mistakes. LOL

Hugs & Love

Here's the first quilt finished. I learned a lot from this project. And I was actually a little hesitant to send it out to Omaha because it meant so much to me.

I appreciate everyone's support and even after a year of having my son home, I still get choked up when I think of it. The support you give is more meaningful to our families and our loved ones who serve than you will ever imagine. Sometimes I would completely fall apart on the train home from work and complete strangers would hold my hand and help ease the pain. God bless you all.
