OKLAHOMA’S LARGEST QUILT SHOP 101 S. Main St., Hennessey, OK 73742 | 405-853-6801
Perfection vs. Creativity How close to perfect do you have to be? This fall I worked on a quilt called First Blush. Once I got away from striving for perfection, working on this project became an absolute joy. I can pull plenty of excuses out of my “not responsible” bag. Such as the pattern was too hard, my eye sight is bad, you get the idea. I finally accepted the fact that when I put twelve pieces together at an intersection I am going to run into problems. So I sewed it the best I could and abracadabra, I added a dimension that, at least in my mind, made it even cuter. Where the twelve seams met, I added a red wool circle. Just as with any block with a mistake in it, we do not have to point it out to others. When people see my quilt I don’t think they will know that the cute wool circles weren’t in the original design. We pay way too much attention to what other people think. Stop using energy that way and start using it to be more creative. Have some fun!
“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.” -Scott Adams
