After Autumn got over her shock I tried to explain just how her quilt would look if we left it as it was.
I'm not sure why I couldn't visualize this until after she left last Monday. But, duh. It finally soaked into my brain that this just isn't what we want. I called her dear Mom, Barbara to see what we should do, and that's when we decided to pick it all apart.
Now, yesterday Autumn & I sewed all the blocks back together adding the black in a checkerboard fashion.
Then I used my homemade "Twister" template and cut out each block individually.
Autumn sewed them together and laid them out in rows.
And now, TA DA, she has a much lovelier quilt top.
We were tired but happy when it was finished.
And if you think that's not enough, Autumn is making this quilt to give away to one of her best friends! She is so kind and generous!
