just in time because Lori has put up the next row on her blog. Friendship stars. I was trying to be so careful while making these mittens. Somehow I sewed a small square on the wrong side of a mitten and the cuff wouldn't fit right. It took me a while to figure it out. I had to make a new mitten. I thought I was sewing the little squares on the right side but I ended up making a mitten go the same way as the first one. It was those two in the center so I just sewed them in the opposite direction. I was afraid to try to make another one because of the problems I was having.
When I took a picture to put on my blog one mitten jumped out at me. Another one wrong! I forgot to add a little square. I can't believed I missed it the whole time I was putting the row together. So I just un-sewed a little bit of the section so I could fix it. The photo above is the corrected row. (see the orange arrow)Hopefully I won't have any issues with the next row or the one Lori will be posting in two weeks!
With Passion,

I would never have seen it if you didn't point it out. I think they look great!
ReplyDeleteBoy did I have to look for that, Carrie! What a lovely row, this is going to be a gorgeous quilt.
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteYour mittens turned out great; sorry they gave you grief!
ReplyDeleteYou're lucky! I had a small quilt quilted and bound, and when I went to take apciture of it, a huge glaring error jumped out at me. The camera sees everything. Your mittens are adorable, and will be well worth it!!!
ReplyDeleteIt can happen to anyone. I don't think I would have noticed it.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't 't have noticed the rebellious mitten if you hadn't pointed it out
ReplyDeleteOnly you would know but isn't it amazing what you see when taking pictures. Your project is looking great Carrie.
ReplyDeleteCarrie, you have some patience, I'd have chucked it across the room!

The mitten row is super cute. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
ReplyDeleteI had to blow up the photos and pour over them for several minutes before I understood the problem! I think it turned out great.
ReplyDeleteI love your mittens! Great colors.
ReplyDeleteThey look great to me , this is a fun quilt !
ReplyDeleteThose mittens look great, and I agree with others that no one but you would ever have noticed, but, if you are like me it would have bugged you always that there was that small mistake... now you will always remember going back and making it right.
ReplyDeletePhotographs really do bring out unintentioal sewing issues. I love your row of mittens and your posts encourage me! Hope to see you next week. B
ReplyDeleteYour mittens are super cute. I had trouble with one of the rows. I just couldn't get it, even though it was simple. Kind of like your mistep. But I didn't fix mine so mine are unique! And they are the butterflies and it really didn't change things too much. But I can see how you needed to fix yours. I started the stars last night but didn't get far. I was babysitting. Fun though, isn't it.
ReplyDeleteGood thing you noticed the missing piece, I don't think I would have.
ReplyDeleteFun mittens :)

ReplyDeleteChanged to the old blogger. Can you reply to my comments now? Are they showing up?
ReplyDeleteI really love your mittens. The colors you have chosen for your rows are right up my alley. Now that I am done with the Scrap Squad I hope to start some of these great projects. Hugs
ReplyDeleteWe truly are our own worst critics. I never would have noticed that squared off little mitten! The row looks great, Carrie!
