I was going to start another thread on the block quilt I planned to make. Not going to, as the whole effort was a disaster. The blocks, being non uniform, only matched up for a few blocks, then the seams got progressively farther apart. I also got a wavy surface, instead of a flat product.

It probably is because I did not size the blocks, which, right now, I can't do accurately. I still am gathering tools also need to purchase a 1/4 inch foot for my sewing machine. That may help with better alignment of my stitch line.

Another problem is these blocks were of different thicknesses of material. They difference was not great, but there was a difference. So I have different thicknesses of material all through my trial quilt.

Not sure what to do with this mess. It's too difficult to remove the stitching. I guess I could cut out the material inside the stitches, and use it for something else. But that still means the inconsistent thicknesses of the material come into play.

Any suggestions on what to do with this botched quilting attempt?
