What I am good at-
I decided that it is
okay to acknowledge - to myself, anyway - what I am fairly proficient at.
There is always "room for improvement" - but I am quite happy with how much some of my skills have improved over the years.
Why not give ourselves some pats on the back now and then?

You should get a big pat on the back for your posts! They always make me think just a little bit as I contemplate my response. For today, I will raise my hands clapping to celebrate happiness with myself!...and you!

My blocks usually end up to be the size I intend them to be. ( plus or minus 1/ 8 8nch)
I can frequently figure out how to replicate a geometric block.
The backs of my blocks are usually neat.
I am good at basic math.
I know how to change the size of a block..
I have learned to be more adventurous with my color choices. Thank you, Jinny Beyer.
I have gotten better at figuring out why something did not turn out "right". Sometimes it was the pattrrn or instructions that had the error.

I am pretty close to finally accepting and live with it, but I don't get near as stressed out with some minor error in my quilt. In other words, I don't feel that I have to point it out. And for me that's good.

I'm finally getting the hang of FMQ and I realize that little mistakes that I thought would show really don't once it's all quilted.
Also- nobody in my family quilts so they think what I make them is perfect. I won't tell them different

I am good at keep my sewing and quilting items and fabric neat for the small place I have. I have to do this to know I can find things. I also think I am getting better of stitching in the ditch. Maybe we will all almost be perfect before we are too old!!!
