You girls aren't even close yet. You still have so many yrs. ahead to figure out perfection. Now that I've hit 72, the biggest lesson I've learned is that there is NO such thing as perfection. Just think of how bored we'd be if we were perfect. Or how bored we'd be with everybody else because they aren't perfect. LOL

Also, I was told that the Amish purposely make a mistake in their quilts, because only God is perfect. Does anyone know if that is true or not?

Don't know if it is true but I have heard it many times.

Well I am 69 and was hoping for 70, but with my luck it will never happen. Well all the mistakes I make the quilts are always originals!

I am just glad I wake up every day to make more mistakes. At least when I make them I know I am alive and well, am in good company, and plenty of time to be perfect in heaven.
