Flaws? What flaws? Mwahahaha! Seriously, it depends on the day!

You know what? Puckers don't bug me. I've occasionally gotten some when piecing because....well, mis matched seams DOES bug me. I will deal with a pucker in a block to make sure my seams match. My last quilt was the first one on my new machine, and I hadn't gotten my 1/4 seam sorted out yet. That one had quite a few puckers in the top. I did go buy a 1/4 foot after that and the next one was pucker free lol. But you couldn't even notice once it was all quilted and washed...*I* couldn't even find them and I was looking for something I *knew* was there! lol
I haven't yet encountered puckers on my quilt back...I'm sure I will, eventually! LOL It will completely depend on the size of it to determine if I rip it out. |
I think my biggest flaw is that I don't always sew 1/4 inch seam :( . But I can live with most of my flaws.
|
All of the above and lots more I'm sure. The older I get the easier it is to admit faults...they are just part of my wonderful personality...lol

My biggest flaw,among many,is that I don't finish things. I see a new pattern or find some lovely fabric and off I am to a new project. I can't call myself a quilter until I learn to finish what I start.

Let's see: I'm short, I'm fat--oh you meant quilting flaws.
I'm obsessed with making blocks. If I see one I have to try it. I must have 100s of blocks piled up in the closet. If I ever need a potholder I'm ready! Gotta find a way to put them in a quilt (after I try some new block patterns I found). |
The biggest flaw that I have had is striving for perfection. When my seams did not match it drove me bonkers. That is until I posted to this group and they gave great advice about riding by on a horse and others. I felt relieved. Most of my seams match in the quilt I am working on now, maybe a shade off here and there, but, as this quilt is coming along, you don't even notice.
|
My biggest flaw...I buy patterns and quilting books like they are going out of style, yet I never use any of them. I have never used a pattern for any of the quilts I've ever made...LOL
I have the same problem in the kitchen! I buy recipes books, but never cook! |
Getting the exact same line and edge of fabric together when rotery cutting. Sometimes I'm just a tad off and I try to be so careful!
