    Default rag quilt

    I need help I am making a turtle rag quilt but I am unsure how to seam together the last edges. They are both curved but the curves don't match up its like they are opposites but I followed pattern. Any help will be great

    Mae, if you can post a picture maybe that will help with trying to make a suggestion for you. I am not sure of hte pattern but maybe someone else has made it.

    When you cut the pieces with the pattern, you may have needed to have the fabric folded. Look on the pattern piece and see if it has a note to reverse the direction on the curved pieces.

    if it is the pattern I am thinking it is, I made it as well. the seams that meet in the center, after you have made the halves, do indeed have a smaller seam. you have to pay attenetion when you are putting the side sections together. I believe it is just the one row that is not symetrical. I turned one the wrong way and since I had triple seamed it, I did not rip. Once it was ragged it was hard to find the mistakes.
