Mistake? No mistake at all! This is "Hurricane at Sea"!

Murphy 03-04-2012 04:15 AM

The wrong one is the "Perfect Storm" (smile). Both are very beautiful. Will love to see it completed. Thanks for sharing the plans.

A design decision. I do apologize, but I can't see the difference.

How about Jonah's Storm?

mbeskosty12360 03-04-2012 05:16 AM

They are both really awesome. Would you think of sharing either one?

marymay 03-04-2012 05:37 AM

I like the wrong one better.

Yooper32 03-04-2012 05:38 AM

I would call it " The Stutter"/ I actually like both of them.

StarofMoonDancer 03-04-2012 05:43 AM

Tn Waves. I like it do it. Great beauty there. :):):):)

damaquilts 03-04-2012 05:53 AM

Way more interesting. I like the "mistake"

LenaBeena 03-04-2012 06:27 AM

I much prefer the first. Maybe you could call it "Ocean Motion".

Greenheron 03-04-2012 06:37 AM

"The Imperfect Storm"?:rolleyes:

char593 03-04-2012 07:26 AM

Waves of thought

laynak 03-04-2012 07:38 AM

I like your mistake. Very nice! Reminds me of 'Riding the Rapids'. That's what I'd name it.

callen 03-04-2012 08:21 AM

Love the mistake. Looks it more turbulent - really gives it a lot of motion.

T. 03-04-2012 08:23 AM

I like the "mistake" one too, but of couse I am not the one who has to do the work :)

LindaMRB 03-04-2012 08:39 AM

I would call it harder.
I would not attempt the wrong one because I am not that experienced.
I MIGHT consider the right one...

karate lady 03-04-2012 09:04 AM

the wrong one looks more like a storm to me and I like it. Like the second one too, but is more peaceful looking. could call it calm after the storm. smile

Several people have asked if I would share the concepts for how I created this boo boo so I am going to attempt to attach a PDF document that I created for another board member. Hope this works. Just one thing. I think that typically this block is constructed about 12". I made it 24" to make it go together faster. Storm at Sea patterns and directions can be found very easily on the internet. This is just an explanation of process and doesn't give any dimensions. Ann

hurricane????lol

dallen4350 03-04-2012 09:20 AM

I like the wrong one better too. Call it "The Perfect Storm".

QUILTNMO 03-04-2012 09:23 AM

mistake or not i do like the first one

WMUTeach 03-04-2012 09:31 AM

I don't see anything wrong with your first design. Name it after you son.

I prefer the wrong one. It's more interesting.

I call mistakes like that DESIGN OPPORTUNITIES!!!

Both variations are quite old----

minstrel 03-04-2012 10:13 AM

Hurricane?

Bergereink 03-04-2012 10:17 AM

Call it "perfect storm"

Maggieloe 03-04-2012 10:24 AM

Stormier at sea.

Quilts and Watercolors 4 Me 03-04-2012 10:38 AM

I love the right one, it's gorgeous and simpler.

Doreen 03-04-2012 10:41 AM

I like the first one. It's like a kalidiescope!

CircleSquare 03-04-2012 10:44 AM

:o Compared with the new "mistake", the original seems almost boring!

QandE2010 03-04-2012 11:27 AM

Yep, I'm with the "wrong one" crowd.

valsma 03-04-2012 11:30 AM

Don't know what you should call it but I really like the first one. Like someone said it has more movement. They're both great though. More than I would tackle. Post a pic when you get the fabric one finished

klarina 03-04-2012 11:32 AM

Fortunate.

MarthaT 03-04-2012 11:48 AM

Hurricane at Sea!...looks like more than a storm, but I really like it too.

I agree, I like the wrong one too for the same reasons.

JanieH 03-04-2012 12:02 PM

I also like the first one - really compelling.

And Dunster - the quilt on that blog site was wonderful. Thanks for sharing it.
