When she came back full and happy, we asked about the cutting if we had done it right (too late). It was wrong, she did not apologize, this was black and white, not the easiest thing to undo, in fact we could not. So I kept on going and made it all work, finishing up quilting now. What I have learned from this lesson is to ask more then once and do not assume the one teaching is saying the right thing. Fabric costs too much and our time is worth something, too. It is going to look ok, but not quite like Kinetic Energy should look, oh well, at least it is done. I am going to be happy to finish this one up. And yes I learned a lot with this one.
