Last night in the studio we completed the second block in our Quilt of the Month Club. This block was a little bit of trouble for me. First off I cut my fabric WRONG so where it is dark paisley, it should be the solid tan print and vice versa. I am not the type of person to run back to the quilt store and purchase more fabric to do it right. Is there really a right and a wrong way? I am sure if I had cut the fabric correctly the block would have been prettier. It is not an attractive block, color wise I mean. I think all of the mismatched points add charm, plus I didn't want to rip out, if I can get away without doing that I will. I am not a perfectionist by any means. My eyes and mind find beauty in the "not so perfect".
My daughter on the other hand HAD to rip out one of her units was about half and inch off, the easiest save was just to pick up that seam ripper and rip away! I told her it was excellent experience, nobody likes it but you do learn by having to do it. Overall the blocks came together with minimal problems. I would liked for them to have had more color than what they did, but who knows what next month's will bring!
