They sort of looked like a very long v cut down the middle. It turned out very nice and my Step Mom loved it and the ''modern'' borders. She never knew it was a major boo-boo and a 2 chocolate bar problem....
Isn't that funny how it works? They say necessity is the mother of all invention, but I think screw-ups deserve a lot of credit, too! I like Bob Ross's, "We don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents" philosophy too....but I think it's a bit easier to get away with happy accidents in oil paint than it is in a quilt, lol.
