Oops! Fixing My Potato Chip Quilt Mistakeβ¦Make that TWO MISTAKES!
|
Hi Reader, This panel potato chip quilt is looking fabulous and I'm so close to being finished. Have you ever had a quilt just about finished only to find a mistake that HAD to be fixed? I have a couple from a few years ago that are still sitting on the shelf waiting for me to get the mistakes corrected. But for this faux-pas (a really big mistake!) I was determined to make the block usable! This video is a step-by-step tutorial for fixing a common mistake we all probably encounter at some point. But imagine my surprise to find that fixing one mistake brought a second problem to my attention. Luckily these issues were fixable and now I have a finished block waiting to be sewn into my quilt. It was much easier to fix than to start over! So next time you find a 'problem' think about how you can do a work around. Let me know what kind of mistakes you've had to figure out. Do you have any secret methods for fixing common quilting mistakes? I'd love to hear your techniques and share them with our quilting group. Being creative quilters, we have some of the best ideas for fixing troublesome quilting problems. So let's share what we've learned! Check out more Potato Chip Quilt posts, videos, pattern sales and freebies!

Hi Reader, When it comes to the holidays, my primary rule is 'Keep It Simple'! While I may only follow it the first few months, it's a good rule. Until I see what else is out there to create and I want to make it all! π So I'm changing my approach this year...again. Use simple blocks that go together fast and easy! Here's how I'm deciding which blocks to choose. First, it must be a block I can easily make scrappy. This way I can use fabric I already have which saves me money. I prefer to buy...
