As I move through the process of making these small simple quilts I learn something with each one. What a surprise, isn't that how all learning processes work? I learn what works and what doesn't. With each quilt I see what I would do differently next time and therefore my motivation to dash over to Joann's Fabrics to begin again.
While I'm working on whatever the current one is, I think "wow, this is the best one yet," until I work on the next one and look back at the previous quilt photo and then think, "oh, that is just okay." This is a good thing because then I can see progress. If I'm not progressing in some small way then I know I will get bored and search for something else to learn from.
