Attaching a Hanging Sleeve is Not My Favorite Thing...
But I spent a good part of today doing just that. I did a really good job too...
But I attached it to the wrong side. :mad: < Banging my head on the desk... > I'm starting over now... |
By the wrong side, I hope you mean the left, right, or bottom, rather than the front! (I don't enjoy attaching sleeves either.)
|
Awwww, you poor thing! I first thought you meant you'd attached the sleeve to the front of the quilt but then realized that couldn't be right. Although it would be sort of funny :o
|
Yes, I attached it to the bottom back instead of the top back. I think I'd give up quilting if I had put it on the front. :o

I made a wall hanging, a first for me, even put a hanging sleeve on it and all went very well. I checked a couple of times to make sure I was attaching it to the top. Not often everything goes well, I do like it when they do.
So sorry you are having some troubles with it. |
4.5 hours later the and wide sleeve is on the top where it belongs... now to put the narrow sleeve on the bottom... I get really tired of a quilt at this point. I just want to start another one.
|
Every so often I need to repeat to myself "sew right sides together"! You can't get a more basic mistake than that!
Glad to hear it finally worked out. |
We are having a quilt show coming up next for our guild so I have had to sew a few sleeves on. Not sure why but really do not like sewing them and then taking them off after the show.
|
I too have a dislike for attaching/making hanging sleeves... just seems like a pain in the ... I would be really upset if I put it on the wrong way .. it more than doubles the pain.
