That's a great idea! There are so many decorative stitches on my machine, I'm always looking for new ways to use them. Thanks!

If it is substantially off, I adjust the seam width a tad or two, but if it's a little off, I let it go. None of my quilts have ever gone to shows or have hung on walls. I figure if the defect won't be spotted by someone riding a horse at a gallop near it, it's just fine. My quilts are baby and kids quilts made to be used, enjoyed, slept under, wadded up, crawled upon, ... and lots of etc. And, when the baby out grows it, the puppy or kitty can enjoy it, too.

I try to be as accurate as I can be, I work to get it as close as it should be. I donate most of my quilts but, I still want them to look good.

I want the points and seams to match up. Sometimes like naughty children, they run out of line. I try again and usually get them straightened out.

My current butterfly quilt is kicking me right now. Somehow, somewhere it if off. I have a class with a great teacher for help next week.

I am too much of a perfectionist and will rip out a seam 3 or 4 times to get the seams to match. This is probably why I don't get too many quilts made. LOL

I don’t have much tolerance for a fudge factor. That is why I always use Deb Tucker’s methods and tools to create blocks.

I do aim to get things to match, and am rather picky about it. I rip out as needed, and carry on. I want my quilts to look good, and not have those pesky spots staring back at me! lol

I try to get it "just right" but, like someone said if I take it out and sew again and it still doesn't fit right, I say forget it! I love to have matched up seams but, I am not going to drive myself crazy. Most of my quilts are gifted or donated, so I don't think most people even notice. At least I hope not.

I feel the same way. I do my best. Marianne Fons said if it's a bigger mistake than the width of a pin then she takes it out. If it isn't...she moves on. The fabric will eventually fray if you take a seam or point out too many times.

Finished is better than totally perfect.
