    Default Good Grief, I've become a quilt snob

    Can you imagine, I can look at this and say "nothing spectacular" It is gorgeous. While to me there is nothing unusual or special in the quilting. I am so happy to be able to be so brassiere about the quilting. Seven years ago I would have been so thrilled out of my mind to be able to do this. That is when I got my longarm. Now it is just a fast and easy way to quilt this. Though at 118" square, nothing is fast about it. I am thrilled to see how far I have come. I use to put on a quilt and think "oh I hope I don't ruin this".

    The quilt top is made by my friend Beth for her daughter. She is extended family so I was thrilled to help her out.. Beth makes the most wonderful tops. One of her many talents is color.

    Beautiful quilt! No offense but do you mean "blasé" instead of brassiere? My French sucks just like my other languages.

    It was probably auto-correct. My IPAD doesn't speak French either!

    I don't think you have become a quilt snob, you probably think your friends quilt is beautiful but like we tend to do think your/our part of it is just ok. Why is it when someone compliments us - we have to point out mistakes or how our work is nothing special????
