Blast. There I was. Happy as a cupcake, thinking that I had successfully sewn my feedsack print log cabin block quilt top together. All that was left was sewing the borders and then the top would have been complete. I put it up on the clothesline to take a picture to show the progress and noticed a boo boo. I must have been sidetracked when daughter phoned. Or rushing because I knew I still needed to do my exercise or something. So tonight I will sit with my stitch ripper and unpick several rows that somehow got turned around so that the little yellow squares are not in the right orientation. BLAH!!!

There is a moral in this story. Sure there is. Something about a job worth doing is a job worth doing well. Or something equally annoying. Oh... I like this one. "A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing." George Bernard Shaw. So I will spend some honourable time with my stitch ripper this evening.
ahhh I hate when that happens, you get all happy because you finished it and you look at it and see a mistake. It looks great though, I love the colours!
ReplyDeletewell, at least you noticed it before you basted it or worse, quilted it!
