Oh I think most quilters have at least once or twice or...lol.
I have two swap quilts (we squares out...and the swapers were to add several fabrics to make an 18" x 15" block)...we sent enough squares to make a twin size quilt. Well the size of the blocks was an issue, and so I cut them up (yep I did...stacked and whacked) and sewed them together...got to 24" square...cut those and sewed again...what a mess! I thought I'd end up with what looked like a crazy quilt...well they sure do look crazy...so bad. I'm going to use them as backing on practice samples. I'll then cut those into 18" squares and give to the vet.
