I did not use a stabilizer, nor a hoop. Just be cognizant of the tension of your stitches.

I get a twice weekly letter from the artist Robert Genn. At the end of today's letter he wrote:
"Excessive influence, even from the work of others in art magazines or books, can lead to malfunctions of the creative spirit. Fen Lansdowne, the brilliant and widely-published bird painter who recently passed away, suffered from a lifelong malady called "The Imposter Syndrome." Comparing himself to others sent Fen into a dark and angry funk that sometimes lasted weeks. When he figured out the cure, it was pretty straightforward: Watch birds. Do drawings. Paint birds."

Eileen, I joined into this discussion late because I have not had time to keep up with the forum lately. Just remember that what you do with your long arm quilting is also truly an art. You made my Rhapsody so much better than what is was before the quilting. I will be forever grateful for your artistry to make my dream come true. Each of us have some skills, some of us have an art and some have a vision. We each need to stretch our skills to become an art and then maybe move on to a vision. Or sometimes the vision comes first and then the skills and the art. But in whatever order, we each need to express our own talents and vision and as I am learning, Not Worry to Much About the Nay Sayers in our environment. Keep on keeping on to your vision and know you have a friend and supporter here in Texas right now (who knows where I will be next LOL) Hugs and Love, Ann

Thank you, Ann. You'll always have a friend in New York. I loved working on your quilts.
Every quilt I work on inspires me in some way; the imagination that so many people show through their work lets their soul shine through.

Thanks to everyone who gave support for my quandary. I've found 3 things to feed my soul in 2011.
Sue's Ruffled Roses BOM project, Kim McLean's Roseville Album quilt and my Dear Jane. I'm really looking forward to working on them.
I'm also going to participate in Judy Laquidera's UFO project. It's basically a UFO of the month. We had to list 12 UFOs that we want to get done. She picks a number between 1 & 12 and that's the UFO we work on for the month. :shock:
I think my soul is doing better and a big reason is being able to come here and talk to everybody here.8)

What a great insight! And so true, eventually we all have to get on with the project and "just do it." : )
