true up
So I'm a perfectionist. This can make life as a whole challenging at times, and it can be especially frustrating while creating handmade, imperfect things. I want to love everything I make. I want everything I make to be perfect. And it just isn't.
I'm trying to finish this imperfect quilt, which has been a challenge from beginning to end. It's been one of those projects, kind of like "one of those days," kind of project. Bumpy process. Slow process. The bumpier the process got, the longer it got because it was easy to put it aside and work on something more gratifying.
I was just truing it up and it has a stripe on the back and what I thought was a perfectly straight cut on the front is off on the back. But only in one corner. I'm pouting. Considering trimming just a little more...to see if I can make it perfect.
