Well, I recently made a table runner. I worked on it all day. That evening, I was thinking "I'll just trim it up and finish tomorrow. Woke up tomorrow, to see I had trimmed it very crooked, and no way to fix it. Attempt two- I started over, and thought I will 'just wing it' and make a braided one table runner. Never try to make a braided quilt without instructions or a pattern. (If you look in the dictionary, you will see it pictured under the word "wonky") Attempt three-I started over again and had to get it in the mail since it was already two days late for mailing. I finally got it finished, got the binding on, and it will be going in the mail tomorrow a.m. I no longer have any blue scraps, but it is DONE. I have never had to do more than frog a seam before this one. I feel so silly for having all this trouble with it. I usually wash my quilts before I deliver them, but not this time. I just couldn't take it if something happened to this one. :cry: :oops:
