Moving past "Quilter's Block" - Motivation to Quilt

It is funny that sometimes Kathy finds it to be really hard to quilt. Kathy is a celebrity to many of us because of her years of quilting experience. We think that when it comes to quilting she walks a foot off the ground, and she never has any challenges. Surprise! She has trouble figuring out what to do just like the rest of us. Granted, she will take less time figuring it out than most of us, but she can sometimes get what I call "Quilter's Block."

Sometimes Kathy has a customer bring her a really ugly quilt. Wild colors, or really bad piecing, or sometimes they are just ugly. So what do you do? You just quilt it! I have seen quilts that were not very pleasing to the eye, that after they have been quilted, they are a 1000% better!

The moral of this post is to make sure that you quilt the ugly ones as well as the awesome quilts.

Don't whine - Just Quilt It!

Make sure you link your web site to http://machinequiltingmagic.com/
This is the web site for our new eBook Machine Quilting Magic. This really is a book that all shortarm and midarm machine quilters should read. There is something in there for everyone.
