Good Quilts Gone Bad
It starts out quite innocently - the building where our guild meets needs some potholders. I've got scraps.
Step 1: Strip piece freeform, then enjoy a little meandering.
Step 2: Square up and bind. Oops, the binding is a bit wonky. Oh well, they'll just get stolen one day anyway.
Step 3: Time to practice sewing the binding on by machine. Uh-oh, not very good at all. Definitely need to work on that skill.
Step 4: Oh. Need a loop. Hey, why not try a wider loop and see how it looks? Oh.My.Goodness. That's a real mess.
Step 5: What to do? Fix the loop? Nah, too much trouble. Throw them away? No way - they're perfectly functional. Decision: finish the other one and own the ugly.

They look very nice to me and not ugly at all. I like them.

Nan
Wow, green potholders!
I like them both. And don't call them ugly, they may be offended. Call them challenged. I see nothing wrong with them.
