I have been known to rip out really bad puckers and toe catchers in my machine quilting, but I don't really worry too much about the unevenness of it--by the time the quilt is washed and wrapped around someone, stitch regulation is the last thing on their minds!

So if my quilt is looking too matchy-matchy I will often switch out some fabrics for ones that clash just a little.<br /><br />I also like to be surprised by the way my quilts turn out so I can't plan them out too completely or I won't have any motivation to finish them.laura west konghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01992230101346783651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28454773.post-61634791182323842082013-05-17T09:06:57.823-05:002013-05-17T09:06:57.823-05:00"I sometimes get cranky when I visit other bl..."I sometimes get cranky when I visit other blogs and they're churning out quilt after quilt after quilt and writing a "secret" book they can't tell you about, and guest posting on 6 different other blogs that week, each with a different project, and they're hosting a new quilt along, and they're getting happy mail from yet another fabric company, and and and......"<br /><br />Well, I am churning out the quilts but no one has knocked on my door offering me anything.<br /><br />Not that I have an attitude about it.

I play. I rarely measure, If it goes wrong and I don't like it it goes either into the bin or I cut it up and recycle. Books I am an avid reader, I skim, I pick bits, I forget I've got the book and buy it again!! They get put on the shelf until I am ready and I don't feel guilty.
