Ok, I may be the only one who has ever unquilted a vast expanse of a
quilt because of a discovered problem that just couldn't be fixed,
appliqued over, hidden by excessive beading.
But maybe I'm not the only one.
If you've ever unquilted something, I'd love to hear your story. I
promise, I'll never tell a soul. ;)

I haven't done it yet, Sunny, because I'm putting it off; but there is
one waiting to be done. The whole thing just didn't work - I have to
start again.

Just last night I ripped out 2 Looong seams, 60+ inches each, after
deciding that the resulting series of 2 joined runs of squares, "just
didnt look right". Stayed up past my normal bed time to, "make the set
of squares look right". Went to be satisfied that all the effort was
worth the frog noise. rippit, rippit, rippit.

Usually my pin basting is reliable, but nobody's perfect. And I don't mind
the occasional teensy tuck. But one day I was machine quilting along, free
motion spirals, really making progress. Took a break, turned it over to
admire my work, and blimey! A vast pleat running diagonally through all the
part I had just finished quilting. All had to come out :-p
