I worked on a quilt yesterday. I have all the blocks done and was sewing them together excited that they fit (yeah) and that the seam allowance was right on. All good things. Last night I stood back to look at it and was thinking ah.. now all I need to do is make the binding, better go pull the batting out and it dawned on me. One whole row was upside down. I have little bunny blocks every other one in two rows.. one was going the right direction the other the wrong one. HOW DID THIS ESCAPE MY ATTENTION? I KNEW THEY WERE THERE.. I was so bummed I walked away as I was not going to rip that seam gentley. This is not the first time I have done this either. Thankfully its not quilted or I would toss the darned thing in the trash. Any suggestions on how not to keep making this mistake? I am frustrated, ok much better than last night but still.. I was DONE, sigh..
