Minions Quilt Math Error on Border produces a Different but Interesting Quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
I have had this minion panel for a long time and finally decided to do something with it. Well all was going well until I started doing the borders and figured out somehow I messed up the math! I think it looks ok but if I do something like this again I will know better..... I added the small 1/2 suare traingles to the bottom to try to recover from my error, it just makes it more interesting I guess :D

The quilting pattern is called wrenchworks and stitched out really nicely. All in all I am sure my niece will love it!

It's a beautiful quilt. Your triangles at the bottom add dimension. Perfect for a little minion!

Very cute quilt and great quilting, if you didn't say you messed up no one would know that you didn't plan it to be that way. So we shouldn't point out mistakes. Just saying. . .

LindaMRB 02-15-2018 03:28 PM

The fact that it clearly goes "one way" makes your math error look like a plan. I really like the quilting pattern you chose.
Makes me wish I had seen it before I started on one I am struggling with right now. :( Someday I will post it to this site.

I love your panel, your border, and your quilting. That quilt pattern is a great match. I find straight lines impossible to do well, and your look awesome.

Great design element! I love how the bottom triangles anchor and add dimension to your quilt.
