Mini Monday - Dad's Plaids

A7 was regular applique, but for some reason I decided to do both forward and reverse.  The melons turned out slightly different sizes with the two methods, resulting in a slightly wonky seam allowance on one of the corners.  I might try to fix it, or I might go with the Dear Jane moto, "finished is better than perfect".

I like the purple fabric. I agree that sometimes finished is better than perfect. I have used it a lot on many of my DJ blocks and I think that a lot of my 'not so perfect' blocks won't be noticeable at all in the finished quilt.

Love the purple with white! I agree with Ellen - finished it is..... and will you really notice anything in the finished quilt other than a really cute block?

I like the inverse effect in the block. Another great one.
