Good to see we all do it. Imagine how much boring it could be if we didnt run into these little bumps in the road. Better yet-imagine how much more we could get done if we never made a mistake.
Just finished ripping out a row of blocks going the wrong direction. Think this is a part of quilting - who else keeps the ripper manufacturer in business.
I teach a beginning quilting class, and I always tell my students on the first night, "The seam ripper will be your best friend. You will use it a lot!"
