I did too. But I went ahead and finished the blocks. I think I did several like that (at the beginning).

I almost threw them into the orphan pile, but after doing more, I decided that even if the weave went under instead of over, once it is constructed into the quilt, no one, and I mean, "no one--not even me" could find it. So I didn't throw the blocks into the orphan pile. They are incorporated into the quilt top you see. I've sandwiched it now and hope to quilt it on Monday/Tuesday.

The first ones took a long time (That is why I so upset with myself for doing a couple of them wrong.) Then I did 5 at a time--then I worked up to doing 10 at a time. I didn't try to work on this one all by itself, because, as I said, it was tedious. I had a couple of other projects going on as well in order to take a break from this one.
