Winding Ways #2 - Borders Corrected
After really looking at the pictures I posted yesterday of this miniature quilt, the apparent flaws in the borders stuck out like a sore thumb. After talking with Louise, I realized that the borders had to be re-done - here is the result. Much better. And they look straighter than in the picture above - with my just holding the camera, I still get some keystoning (didn't figure out the exact center, so the left looks a little wobbly.) However, I'm more satisfied. A famous quilter once said, "Better finished than right", but this time, I needed to correct my mistake.

Another Miniature Quilt - Winding Ways
The Winding Ways quilt pattern has always been a favorite. I love the secondary patterns in it that you will see if you click on the quilt to enlarge it. This was a kit, with the pieces already laser cut. I don't think that I would have the patience to cut the tiny pieces used to create this mini. I'm still having a problem with the bottom dark first border - there is a slight wow or bulge, and I've got to figure out how to fix it, but over all, I love the pattern and the colors. Another UFO to click off as being half done. Progress in the sewing room!
