You have got to be kidding me? Seriously!?
HOW did that seam get THERE??? I was SOOOO careful to lay out the binding and go ALL THE WAY AROUND the quilt with it to make sure THAT did NOT happen. Crap, crap, crap!! So, that put a halt to my happy stitching…bragging to myself about how I think this is the BEST binding I have EVER done. Now I have to completely undo that section and splice in a new piece, because I am not going to let one stinking corner ruin the best binding I have ever done. Crap.
And yeah, I cleaned it up for the blog…I don’t think I was really saying crap.

I’m a simple woman…at least that what my DH (Dear Husband) used to say about me…I was a wife, I am now a widow, mother, step-mother & step-grandmother, quilter, and have a full time job in criminal justice. I lost my DH on May 22nd, 2011. I live in a small town in Texas. I love piecing quilts, I love quilting quilts. I have a serious addiction to fabric. I’ve been quilting since 1998, and purchased my first longarm, a Gammill Premier, in 2004. I upgraded to an A-1 Elite, named Corky, in March, 2007. I am in the process of rebuilding my life after losing my spouse.

Oh my! Dang it – well , did you ever machine quilt your quilting gloves (off your hands of course) in your quilt, and not notice until 20 minutes too late? Hey, you’re not the only one with issues! Funny! LOLOL

When that happens to me I cut out some of the batting bulk from that corner and keep going. It all works out fine.
It happens to me a lot because I am lazy when it comes to binding.

Poor Randi! I’ve done that before…so frustrating! And generally it’s not the first corner where you catch the mistake, but further around the border.

i leave mine there too…cut away the bulk and you are good to go! my biggest peeve is that you can see the stitching so i typically take a permanent marker and carefully color the stitching threads to help them blend more. they are more noticeable on a corner…

I’m amazed at how often that happens to me. Most of the time, I leave it in there.
