Something Wrong

 


I thought I'd finished piecing this baby quilt, minus the borders.  It wasn't until I'd looked at the picture that I realized something was wrong.  It isn't too obvious, I'd looked at it time and again on my design wall, but it's there.

I considered leaving it, but in the end I just couldn't.  I just had to take that part of the quilt apart and fix it.

I'm always amazed how piecing that looks like we think it should shows up on a photograph.  Sometimes even more in black and white.   That's my quilting hint for the day - photograph your "finished" piecing, set the photo aside, then look at it again in a few hours.  The next day is even better.

Hint:  to find the error, look at the seond row, far right.  Those little lion heads look like they are vertical.  The other lion head blocks look horizontal.
