This has absolutely NOTHING to do with quilts, but one time my husband's emplyer treated us to dinner and a night of racing at the local harness racing track. I've been there before, even bet at little, less than $50 total, so I went up and placed a bet for the trifecta (pick the 3 horses that get 1st, 2nd, 3rd, any order) So I get back to my seat and saw that I bet the trifecta (pick the 3 horses, exact order) and figured, of well, my mistake. Damn if I didn't win! and the people we were sitting with suddenly took an interest in the horse racing!
Mistakes, some ya win some ya lose.
I told you it had nothing to do with quilting, unless you count that as $200 more for fabric
