Big Flowers Quilting, Lori KennedyGood Morning, Quilters!

Today I am confessing a dumber-than-average mistake I made.  I decided to use this as an “Open Line Friday” post because misery loves company!

Do you remember several weeks ago, I was working on a daily challenge, copying a page from a book?  I created several small quilt sandwiches for that project.

One evening, when I was in need of some “comfort quilting” to keep me distracted from the falling snow, I quickly made a large quilt sandwich and began stitching flowers!  Big flowers!

I was totally engrossed in my Big Flowers, when I noticed an odd noise…

Hmmm…I changed my needle and kept going.  The odd noise returned…Hmmm…

I re-threaded the top and bobbin thread and began quilting.  The noise returned but I kept going and just as suddenly the noise went away.  I quickly forgot about the noise and went on my merry quilting way.

It wasn’t until the next day that I realized what that noise was!

ARGH!!!!

I’m gonna be a great teacher someday–because I have made EVERY mistake!!!

What about YOU?

Any mistakes YOU can admit to in a public forum?

Any funny noises when YOU quilt?

We’d LOVE to hear!

May all of YOUR quilts be mistake (and noise)-FREE!
