I will definitely be on the alert for this. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

It sounds like this is where the name patch will go. The spot has been chosen for you. hehehe

that has never happened to me , but next time i open a package i wil be extra careful, thank you

Sorry that happened. Blocks / patches on the back will solve the issue. A lot of times I add a strip of pieces to get the extra inches .

Glad you have your problem solved. Thanks for the warning!

Just a new opportunity!

I was cutting out scrub tops and did not pay attention. When I grabbed the back pieces (I like mass producing), I thought I did not cut out the front "V" neck and started cutting it out, only to realize my mistake. Did some fancy patching and still wear them as a reminder to myself to be careful. Oddly enough, no one at work has ever commneted on it.

This makes me feel better about the issues I create !! Guess the problem solving is good for my 73 year old brain !!! :rolleyes:

And you created an opportunity to improvise! One thing I like to do with quilt backs is put a strip of a fabric that is or some 'extra' (which means 'not quite right but arranged to look good')blocks from the top on one side. It saves me $$, uses the blocks, and, if the quilt is a small childs charity quilt, gives the child a more grown up alternative to the top as he or she grows up.

That happened to me when a friend sent a sweatshirt for my youngest. I cut it right in the neck! Wrapping the fabric (or shirt) would prevent that. I'd let the seller know they should invest in a little tissue paper.
