I can tell you, I didn't really unpick any of them unless they were glaringly obvious. But I would love to be a better quilter, and I guess my point is - do we reach a saturation point when we are as good as we can be? Or are we always able to get better?

Maybe I'm not as diligent as I could be on the bias? I don't know.

If the answer is yes, then leave it. If, after the bazillion hours you spend making a quilt you are going to look at it every day and see the mistakes and regret them, then you should unpick.<br />In the scheme of things though, once the quilt is quilted, you won't really be able to see those tiny mismatches, unless you set to and peer at them. From where I sit, it looks absolutely fabulous, and I would not worry.Dashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415154217182640049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024627395412379646.post-39243824652201982922015-02-02T22:53:28.573+10:302015-02-02T22:53:28.573+10:30I love, love, love your MBH.

I unstitched twice and if I was no better off after that, it stayed. But there must be an easier way than unstitching and hoping for improvement.
