I’ve been playing with this collection of charms (Home Town by Sweetwater for Moda)for awhile first working on this Schnibble (Sweet Spot) using a common background fabric. (Just in case you don’t know about Carrie of Miss Rosie’s Quilt Co who designs these wonderful little patterns click on the Schnibble link and go have a visit!)
I really couldn’t believe myself but when I made the flying geese for this project..and I mean all the flying geese for the border, and I was laying them out on my design wall I realized that I’d made them wrong..where was my mind I ask??
here’s my excuse
sometimes Liam likes to hang out with Grandma in her studio..he is such a handsome distraction!
Thankfully I had more charms so I made the geese over again and correctly the second time and the wrong geese?
have become the star points in a slightly changed version of the Madeline Schnibble pattern. I like this little quilt so much that I’m thankful for that “little” mistake!
Nice pattern. It is a very beautiful quilt.

Shirley, when I was making the flying geese units for the first schnibble I made them with the geese in the background colour instead of gray.

thanks for telling me what was wrong. duh!
(in my defense, I thought the photo showed the
mistake, no wonder I couldn’t find it. LOL If I had
only looked a little harder, I maybe would have
understood.)
Like everyone else, love the pattern and what you did
with the parts that weren’t right.
BTW Liam is quite handsome!
