.....is finished.
This was never going to be a satisfying project once I realized the instructions
were wrong!
 |
| See- No 3 says 'Choose a different print....' It should have said 'a same print'!!! |
I am also SO over 'improvisational' piecing!
All that piecing, pressing, cutting took SO long!
All for a quilt top, that to me, still looks a mess....
I tried to like it but honestly, I am not feeling the love.
I think I will finish it with a light batting....
for a work mate who is having a summer baby.
Or maybe I will just donate it to charity...
In the meantime it's being packed away....
Maybe the quilt fairies will work their magic on it and turn this Cinderella into a
beautiful princess!

Oh doesn't that just make you scream! It is awful when instructions are wrong. Not only does it ruin the project but the wasted fabric, time and energy. I am so sorry :(
What a pain when it isn't your fault! I would send pictures to the publisher - there should be compensation for this kind of thing!!
I currently have part of a quilt top stashed under my cutting table waiting for those inspirational fairies you mentioned - if you find them sent them up my way. Its always good to extend yourself with something different. Take care
I do like the colours and I am not much of a purple person. If you still cannot like it, I agree, give it away, and move on.
I'm proud of you for not feeling the love but persevering anyway. I really like how you've set the blocks with the border. and the name makes me laugh so much!!
