Yup...something just wasn't right and to top it off, this is the one I had problems with at retreat and thought I had fixed it this afternoon after doing some ripping out and re-sewing. (sigh).
So, instead of calling it a day, I ripped yet again.
....and then I had # 4 Swoon block.
So, I thought I am finally on the right road.
I put this one (#5) together, but now I am not so sure I like it all that much.
Oh darn.....there is just not enough contrast in this block.
Maybe I will just put this block on the back of the quilt and cut out a new one if I have enough French General scraps to do it.
Then I started sewing #6 and then this happened.
I grabbed two instead of one when I was trimming. Thank goodness I didn't totally ruin the segment. All I had to do was put another background square on it.
I have laid out block #6.
I think I will sew this one together tomorrow. I am getting frustrated and don't want to make anymore mistakes.
Do you have days like this?
I think we have all had days like this. I remember being in a workshop and spending hours (seriously) learning how to paper piece, and when I finally got the block all together, after unsewing it several times, instead of trimming the seam allowance, I cut the block in 2 pieces. That project still lives in a box, and that was in 2006.
ReplyDeleteYES! I had one of those days last week.
