My in-error Farm Girl block #13
I don't think my sewing machine had been turned on for nearly a month when I vowed this morning to make a quilt block, no matter how I feel--and I don't feel too pretty good. Well, I got the pieces cut out, sewn together, and pressed. Then I discovered that I had several background pieces left over. Then I discovered my error. I had forgot to sew the corners on the blue squares.
This is how it should actually look. (From Janine's Sweet Dreams blog)
So I'm going to have to take it apart and fix it. I thought about leaving it as is, but I think it looks better with the corners. I don't think I'll get it done today. I've used all my spoons on laundry and this bit of sewing. See you tomorrow--maybe.

OOPS! Been there in various ways for my entire quilting adventure. Every once in a while, the math goes wrong or some other goof-up happens. In sewing the pieced border on this eternal star quilt, one section was sewn with the wrong side of the fabric facing up and all of the parts of that side of the border were sewn together before I noticed. This happened less than 2 weeks ago ... oops, again. You're not alone. :)
Wishing you enough spoons to do what you want to do when you wake up.
Hugs!

Darling block Susan, especially pretty with the corners on the square blocks. So, you missed one, it was a pretty block anyway. I can tell you're the quilter who fixes those mistake blocks so get it when you get to it. Hang in there, most days we make perfect blocks that make us happy, those other blocks are just hiccups. Loved your expression of having "used all my spoons."
