IS THERE a Perfect Quilt?
 
Have you ever had a quilt that had no problems from start to finish? I have just started a new one and already have had to take stitches out from 4 blocks. Is there such a thing, or is it like the perfect murder. Just does not exist. :-)

IMHO Eleanor Burns patterns are usually foolproof unless I forget to put on my reading glasses. :o:o:o

In my opinion there is only one and it was created over 2000 years ago. All others contain design elements and other boo boos that make them happy creations with useful intentions.

As far as a quilt goes, I found the easiest quilt I have ever done was the double wedding ring. It went together so easy I just cannot imagine why most people think it is so hard and they are afraid to try it. If most quilts were broken down to the various patches, a lot more would make them. I'm not afraid to tackle anything.

i agree. every quilt is perfect in its own way.

(except which ever one i am currently working on, which is always an unmitigated disaster...)

Lol, I did a scrappy lap quilt last week as I was bored and I didnt have enough pinks for a full quilt. That darn lap quilt was more bother than any of the king size quilts I made :p i became very friendly with my seam ripper.

Nice quilt notmorecraft. I just got a new 830 Bernina and will think about using a pattern like this to "quilt" the different blocks with different embroidery designs.

I just finished my 131 quilt and have tried to make a perfect quilt and haven't made one yet. It wouldn't bother me to have to unsew seams or fix mistakes if it would turn out perfect.
In my opinion it is not possible. Might be possible if I made the same pattern a lot of times, would be too boring for me.
They all make me proud to have made them.
