until your quilt top is done and you take a photo of it????

I have made 2 quilt tops lately and never noticed my boo-boo until I looked at the picture on the computer. UGH!!!

I did the same thing twice on both tops. I sewed two matching pieces right next to each other. I tried so hard not to do it again but oh, well. LOL!!!

Here is a picture of one of them. It is for my DD and my first try a Disappearing Nine patch. Ignore the date, I still haven't changed the camera yet. LOL!

You didn't make a mistake... you made a modification to the original design.
Very Pretty and Valentinesie.

I'm on that galloping horse! Took me a long time to find what you are talking about. So don't worry about it.

I really had to search for the boo boo! Great job...love the hearts. When I first started quilting my sister told me that every quilt has a "boo boo" and only the quilter knows where it is. I think sometimes we over analyze our quilts instead of just enjoying them. We are our own worst critics.
