LOL, "THERE ARE NO QUILT POLICE HERE!". My first learnt expression that went a long way with me. I don't worry now that I am not as far advanced as others or that my work is not perfect lol (far from it). I try to just enjoy it and learn what I can as I go!

To show you how much of a beginner I am, the tip that I appreciate the most is to press from the top and how to do that, laying the light side down and pressing the seam towards the dark side!! I smile and thank the tipper every time I use it, which is every time I sew. It makes things so much easier.

Always buy more fabric than you think you will need for a project, just to make sure you have enough, mistakes can happen and fabrics are sold out and discontinued all of the time. The extra fabric will never go to waste.
