Now I know why people put patchwork stripes on the back of their quilts.
I just got a package of extra wide backing material in the mail. It was stuffed into one of those cardboard envelopes without a zip strip for opening. I got out my knife and slashed open the the edge. Now the material has a hole in it and the finished quilt will have extra decoration. Has anyone else done this?

unfortunately, yes :(

I tell my my quilting friends that 80% of quilting is Problem Solving. It's all part of the challenge! :D

I'm always careful about opening my pkgs so as I don't do this very thing.

Oh no! But at least you have a plan that will work. I have not done this, but, because of you, I probably won't now.

I never open packages that way don't know if something happened in the past but just don't and I guess that is a lesson learned the hard way. -- J

Glad you have a nice attitude about it and not letting it ruin your day :)
Just a thought, have you thought of complaining to the company on how the item was packaged? They may compensate you someway and at the very least change their packaging ways. |
I too learned that lesson the hard way... fortunatley only once.

So sorry, I have not had this happen. You bet I will be very carefull after reading this!!!!
