It may be a mistake, but it is beautiful...maybe the fabric didn't want to be a OBW...lol

Beautiful!

What a great "save"! I would have never though of this. It looks great.

oma66 04-23-2011 07:52 AM

Very pretty. Let's call it a new design, not a mistake...

Thusnelda 04-23-2011 07:55 AM

Indeed, I wish my mistakes looked like this. Mine usually land in the rubbish. The only thing I'd have done differently, is having all the pinwheels look in the same direction. But I guess this way it is more vivacious.

Christine27 04-23-2011 08:12 AM

Not a mistake, a design change.

This is not a mistake, it is a creative use of fabric.

SueDor 04-23-2011 01:49 PM

I wish all my mistakes looked this good.

Carron 04-23-2011 02:42 PM

Too bad every mistake doesn't have a happy ending. Like your guilt big time.

debcavan 04-23-2011 02:44 PM

Never a mistake, always just a new pattern. And it looks great
