I never sit down to sew without the dreaded seam ripper.
My granddaughter was taught by her sewing teacher that the seam ripper would become her best friend and later my grandaughter agreed. We all need a best friend.

I hear ya! I can remember as a girl when I stayed with my darling grandmother up in East Texas, and in the afternoons some of her friends would come over and we'd all sit around the quilt (which was suspended from the ceiling with pulleys, thanks to my gf's ingenuity) and quilt. I would sew a line, and Granny would look over the top of her glasses and say "Ok, the stitches are a little too big (she was being nice - they were WAY too big), so take them out." I'll swear, I took out more stitches than I put in, or so it seemed at the time. But I stuck with it and learned, for better or for worse. <G>
