    Now the question is: are you going to do the same thing with the rest of the blocks?

    Your block looks wonderful!!! Isn't is great when you feel you have such a mistake and the last thing you want to do is start all over or throw it in the scrap pile or the trash, but can actually figure how to make it come out great. I think you did a wonderful job figuring it all out to come out the best! Thanks for sharing all that info.

    I was asked what I used for the darker fabrics topstitching, it is a varigated embroidery thread. The white was a cotton thread that I used for the piecing as well.

    If you hadn't confessed we certainly would not have known that was not intentional. It looks great. Probably better than if you had just PP correctly.
