Finally back to sewing after a hiatus due to Sandy (we lost power for ten days but no other damage, for which we are very grateful).

I'm making a QAYG using the Fast Lane pattern (kinda looks like plaid when completed correctly, correctly being the operative word).

I completed all 48 blocks, assembled them into 8 rows of 6 blocks each, laid them out and .... Hmmm ....what's wrong here? The colors weren't lining up correctly. Finally got out the pattern, pored over the instructions, and found that 45 of the 48 blocks had been assembled incorrectly.

Two options: disassemble the rows and correct the 45 incorrect blocks, or take apart the three "correct" ones to look like the rest. I will lose the plaid effect but, well, I don't think I'm up to the bigger task. Not sure I can bear this job...it could become a UFO.

This is so discouraging.

Thanks for letting me whine.
