If I can't see it without my nose an inch away, why does it matter?? I am stuck in this anal mode worrying about my seams being one thread off and I know it's stupid yet I keep doing it.

And I ripped out two areas to line up the seams better. One was pretty bad though-from before I was using the glue.

I was told "if you can't see it on a galloping horse, it's not worth ripping out" So lay the piece down, gallop by & if you can't see it, don't worry about it!
