You did a great ajob of covering up the mistake. I think we all have a few fixes like that now and then.

Your quilt is beautiful and like the others, I don't see any errors. I wouldn't rip it out. Just enjoy it.

She said always sew the piece on before trimming the underneath piece. Well the other 15 blocks went great. My next step was( I am sure now) wrong, I fixed the error with fusible web and then zigzaged to prevent fraying. It doesn't show much at all, but I think now, I should have made a new block. Did I ruin the whole thing?


I must be blind. Where is the problem? I love your layout. Have never seen it done that way. Log cabins are so versatile. Keep up the good work and don't be so critical of yourself.
