Slacking.... and mess-ups

When beginning this blog, I considered that there would be times I would be busy.  Four kids, a dog and a husband's schedule do get in the way at times, I am afraid.  However, I feel the need to continue the chronicle of projects of the past.  Next up: Mistakes and what to do with 'em.

 So this quilt, I gave to a friend.  The triangles that have no purpose in the corners of the inner square are covering stretching and non-matching seams caused by the minkee.  What do you do in these situations? Me?  I cover 'em up!
 Snagged and puckered binding.  It happens.  Need I say more?


Then you have this guy.  To wash or not to wash before sewing.  Well, this one was a bleeder, thus deemed a "donate to Goodwill" blanket...
