Are there anymore 'Happy Accident' designers out there?
I have been working on an orphan/scrap quilt on the Orphan Challenge and because I started with some blocks already made (over half) and several feet of black/white/red strips sewn together I went with what I had - 9 1/2" blocks. Got the center all stitched together and then started trying to get the first border on...uh oh...got a problem. I solved the problem by adding a strip in the middle of all four sides and now appliqueing either a strip triangle or a light triangle. I think it is adding quite a nice detail I would never have thought of. If you are not a pro quilter who knows how to measure everything and make it come out a perfect match, what do you do?
