There is a lady in my Bee group that makes blocks that are very accurate, very flat, and always the right size. Her blocks are as nice to look at from the back as from the front. I would love to watch her sew sometimes, so I could see what she does to get such accurate 1/4" seams. If you ask her, she just says she uses a 1/4" foot. Well, we all know there is more to it than that, otherwise, I'd get perfect blocks, too.
Think how easy it would be to assemble a quilt if all the blocks were the right size, and all the seams nested properly! I have a lot to learn when it comes to quilting, and a lot to practice. But so far, I'm happy with what I've accomplished. I agree that quilters should never be discouraged by a lack of perfection. Everyone was a beginner once, and everyone can learn something new.
