The inevitable mistake ;-)

Very proud of cutting and piecing a twin-bed-size quilt top, with two, long Tree Everlasting strips and three long panels. Neat points on the triangles and all the pieces line up precisely. Then I sewed last long seam to attach the last long panel, and I faced the quilt top the wrong way, so the seam allowance is on the "right" side of the quilt top.



Something had to go wrong, I guess. It was just going too well.



My SM has been stitching very neatly late, so it should be fairly easy to rabbit stitch my mistake. Knock wood.

Don't feel bad...been there, done that also. I think I've worn the cutting edge of my seam ripper down to the nubbins. It sounds like the rest of your quilt has gone really well though...I can't wait to see the finished product, so I hope you share it with us. Donna

Smile! I bought myself a new stitch ripper, not too long ago. Never realised how good stitch-ripping could be (I'd obviously forgotten how it felt when the other one was new >gDon't feel bad...been there, done that also. I think I've worn the

HA! I've done that many times. At least that is something easily fixed.
