When you cut wrong
 

I was trying to make this pinwheel block with only using a picture. I didn't think it would be that hard.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]427516[/ATTACH] I should have made a paper piece but did not. I was measuring and cutting everything seemed to go well until I realized that I cut one piece to short! I guess I could have re-cut, but I really wanted to use what I brought with me, as I was on a retreat. Re-cutting would mean putting it away for over a week.

I decide to flip things inside out and see what would look good. I really like how it came out and there was very little scrap after I messed up. I did document what I did so if I really want I could make more.

Thanks for looking. I really enjoy this forum, I have learned so much here.

I really like it. You better make more

call it your creative block
nice

I think you should use that block and post directions for the rest of us. What size is it?

Just like that...a new block is born into the quilting world! haha Looks good!

great how it turned out! Like they say we always learn from out mistakes and yours turned out really great! Sorry, I repeat myself a lot, but it really did turn out great!

Thank you, The block is 12.5 and will be going in a VFW quilt. I will post a picture when I get the top finished.

looks good to me

Your mistake turned into a very pretty block! Great recovery!
