I am doing a log cabin quilt, and I wanted to design it into the diamonds/stars look. Well I had no idea that there were different variations to this block. So now when I place them in the pattern for it, my two points at the top, bottom nor sides are equal height. So now what I can I do? People are going to think I was drinking while making this. Ha ha ha..I may need one now though.. ha ha ha To think..I was enjoying making this one and WAS having so much fun. I should have known it was to good to be true. ha ha ha

I agree!

I've started telling myself "that the next one will be better" - just as a way to stop myself from dwelling on small imperfections.

and yes you may call me a "wanna be" perfectionist!

It looks great as is. No one will know you didn't plan it that way unless you tell them. Keep going & finish it & I'll bet you will be pleased with it when it is completed.

It simply makes it unique. I think it's pretty.

I think it will be beautiful. I'm a perfectionist too, quilts just won't act right, I still keep trying.

Completely agree! Your colors are beautiful. Have you tried rearranging it into a different pattern? You might like it better.
But even if you don't, who's to know you didn't intend for it to be that way? It'll still be a beautiful quilt!
