Just wanted to say,.....I prefer to use the terms re-design and re-align instead of ripping it out :lol: . It seems so "vulgar" for the beautiful results we end up with. Don't you think? :lol: :wink: I do however end up doing that upon occasion. :roll: and have found that, indeed, I am much happier with the results.
I prefer saying frog sewing. It's much nicer to say Ribbit Ribbit than rip it rip it. Besides...get's my 5 year old who loves frogs into the process.

I find the same frustrations with borders. I measure across the middle of the quilt and it still seems like I never get it on the first try. So I do some rather calculated frog sewing...and then I start again.
