I don’t know why you call PP “frustration” since you apparently matresed the technique on the first try. I am somewhere in the middle with it — don’t love or hate it so I’m willing to do it once in awhile. However, it does squelch the creative urge to be so exact and follow a pattern. About how you got involved in quilt-making, all that comes to mind is the saying “…and the rest is history!”
