I have the center of my Celtic Solstice sewn together and the first border but have not gone any further yet so instead of writing a new post I decided to revise this one for Bonnie's Linkup Finale. It has been a fun mystery quilt and I look forward to finishing before too long.
While “waiting” for the predicted winter storm to start, I worked on piecing my Celtic Solstice. I finished sewing all the rows together for the center and added the first border. I laid it out for the picture and noticed a mistake. Do you see it? One block is rotated so that the green and orange squares are in the wrong place.

I could NOT leave it.
I un-sewed the 4 seams for the offending block, rotated it and re-sewed.
Much better!
Instead of the orange triangles that Bonnie designed, I want
to use a different second border. I
plan to machine quilt another quilt before working more on the Celtic Solstice
border.
For a change of pace I spent the next couple of hours
piecing a charity quilt.
Keep Warm and Keep Sewing!
Beautiful job! It was really easy to reverse those blocks if you aren't careful! Love the charity quilt too!
ReplyDeleteI sewed two 4 patches in the wrong way. Like you, I had to take them out and redo. When I looked at it again, I had sewn one back in the wrong way again. I figured, this time, it was meant to be. Doesn't bother me at all now! Yours is beautiful, I really like the yellow border. Very nice.
