    Beautiful! Do you find the process of quilting is helping with your therapy? It seems to me it must.

    yes, it build new pathways in the brain.
    which is great to replace those I have lost.
    don't want to become a sitter and do nothing;
    that's not who I am.

    the mitres are perfect, and the way you were able to turn the corners without disrupting the stitch is out of this world! :thumbup:
    Fantastic! I should be brain-damaged like you. Don't mean to offend anyone by that statement and have honored you for quite some time for your determination and grit. Now I will take a page from your book and be determined to learn to do as well with my bindings. You are my hero! You go, Girl!

    Thank you! That makes perfect sense. I watched a few videos where they tell you to lift the presser foot, leave the needle down, fold and stitch. I could NEVER get a flat corner. Now I know why. Thank you again!
