Aaarrrrrggghhhhh!!!

Decided to start one of my big UFO's - Jinny Beyer's Round the World - king sized quilt.

I have made a lot of the components and now getting organised to start sewing them together. Put one set together to make two small blocks and then joined them together to make a large section which didn't really go together as easily as it should - in fact I needed to do some fancy sewing to get it right.

So went on to look at the block components and found that one of them is out - checked the original templates that came with the pattern to make sure I had copied them right and I had. Did some calculations (I am no mathematician) and it seemed like it was wrong. Checked the website but nothing on there - so whether it is my mistake somewhere along the way or not I have no idea but I do need to fix it.

Now I need to go back and see if I can fix them - think I will have to re-cut that one part which fortunately is just a plain rhombus.

The other blocks seem okay but if I can't solve this it will throw everything else out.

Still have the Mariner's Compass block at the centre and the small compass parts on each corner of the quilt
to tackle and dreading that after this problem .... lol. Never made a Mariner's Compass before and have always wanted to try one. Also would like to try a New York Beauty block but think I will wait until I have this all under control .... rotfl!!


Decided to take a leaf out of Lindi's blogs and make a dedicated artworks blog. If anyone is interested it is called Sooziii's Art Work (er um - very original title....lol)
