Looks fine to me. sometimes you just have to do your own thing, and I was told you can do almost anything when quilting. :o)

I think you did a good job . It is beautiful.

You thought it was a mistake, to me it is an inspiration. This is how new patterns are being created!

Some of my favorite things have come from screw ups. Just make it work. Your FMQ is very nice.

It's beautiful. I love the colors and the design. Nice job!

LOL My late DH always said, the mark of a true (artist, seamstress, quilter, builder, woodworker, painter, chef) is not how perfectly you can do something, but how creatively you can fix it when things go "wrong"!

Your end result is beautiful.

Amazing how often it works out that way, isn't it?

Pickles 04-23-2011 04:45 PM

It is a real Beauty , no mess ups that I can see :-D :thumbup:

I really like the design, you should make a pattern of it and sell it. Great work.
