You'd think I had enough experience to check before I cut when I'm using a striped fabric wouldn't you?  Not much else I can say really.

  3. Opps! I think they both would look good clearly the horizontal one has one under pretty. But I have to say it this looks like a bear of a block pattern!

  4. Ah, so you bought a set of those templates that so many people are raving about . . .

    All is not lost. Cut another pair the same and swap the pieces around!

  6. I just did the same thing while cutting half-square triangles. Just cut another set exactly the same. Then you can have two blocks.

  7. LOL!! I've done stuff like that before. I actually like it though. It has a wallop of personality! It's really interesting and charming. I think you should use it.

  8. I have a friend that makes a mistake in every quilt on purpose. Most of the time it takes a long time to find....so maybe this could be your on purpose mistake....LOL

  11. I do things like that with every project it seems. The horizontal stripe is good.

    Have a super great sewing and stitching day.

  12. I have done that plenty of times, that's why I try NOT to use directional fabric!
