I was working in a hurry this morning and did not realize that I had a paper towel stuck to the bottom of my quilt, :cry: so now I have to pick it off. Fortunately, I was sewing a straight seam. Some of the others are fancy embroidery seams, and I might never had gotten the towel out!

Ok, I'm laughing. Not at you, with you.
I was embroidering a quilt one day, didn't notice a couple pieces of fabric had stuck themselves to the back. Went on with my sewing, only to find out I had to pull the ENTIRE quilting out because I just couldn't cut around these scraps and take them out without ruining the stitching.

I have been laughing at myself ever since I sewed it this am. My husband had to laugh, too, altho he is very supportive of my habit. I'm just glad it was only a towel, and that the project is a lap robe instead of a major project.

I have sewed a quilt top to itself before. a corner got flipped underneath somehow, and you are right all you can do is laugh about it.

Hey look on the bright side it was a PAPER towel and that means a soak and it would come out easy hopefully no reverse stiching.... :oops: One of these days I'lll take a photo of all those oops..I've done....after they are quilted and you notice something don't look right....oh yeah I meant to do that... :roll:
