I decided for my next quilt I'd make one for my grandson. I tried to do the meandering by myself. IT LOOKS AWFUL!!! There are no nice round corners and there is WAY too much in each block. I did so much meandering (if you could call it that) in the blocks that it would take FOREVER to unpick!!! I can't just have all my work on the quilt top go to waste though. Would you be able to tell if I unpicked it and started over? Would you be able to see all the holes the needle made? Sorry this is so long . . . I'm just at a loss at what to do! My heart is sad. :o(
Depending on how old your grandson is, he probably won't notice unless you point it out to him. He will love it because Nana made it for him. Hang in there, I can't do it either. Keep trying but it stresses me. If I live long enough I might get to the point where it's passable.
