Stitches Gone Awry
Posted By drsao on April 10, 2008
Tuesday I attended one of my FAVORITE ongoing classes at the Quilter’s Corner in Midlothian, VA – THE BIRTH OF A SAMPLER taught by Sherry Whitford. In NINE months (nine steps) we will have a beautiful quilt designed by Sherry Whitford herself – and part of the fun is that we have OPTIONS at some of the steps along the way!
We were diligently producing hourglass blocks for this month’s border – in an innovative way – and someone had a little mishap…..stitches gone awry! A mistake is often called a DESIGN OPPORTUNITY in the world of quilters….I learned that from my new friends at the last Wakefield Retreat (the Dear Jane Quilters.)
Someone made FOUR partial face masks instead of four hourglass blocks…..tooooo funny!
We turned it into a photo – op! I am the one with the beak on UPSIDE DOWN! 🙂
