Wow! That turned out GREAT despite your frustration. I was showing the gals @ quilting my Dresden plate top the other day. UH OH! The corner on point square was sewn differently than the others. Sooo... I spent the time yesterday taking as little of the border out as necessary, then ripped all 4 seams out and when I went to put it in the CORRECT way. It was not ON POINT anymore!! WHAT THE HECK!!!! Turns out I didn't get the PLATE part going the same direction as the other 15.. Soooooo, had to take THAT all apart, too! I HATE TO RIP!!! I would get the mallet out BUT this WAS "quilter" error and not "Fabric" error!! And after all--- who is in CHARGE HERE.. Who's the quilter and whos the FABRIC, right???? Nobody is perfect so why do we try so hard to be???? Still frustrating.. I am sooooo glad I noticed this before putting all the borders on and QUILTING it..... Would have been a RAG for sure....
