Amen to that! I did it with the quilt I'm working on now. Figured I had the pattern down, and if I mixed light/dark as suggested it would turn out ok. Wrong! Sewing the triangles -- they had to be on the right or wrong side to match the others! I thought chain stitching was going so well. Let's just say I got Mr. Clover "hot and bothered" again. My seam ripper is named Mr. Clover because it is Clover brand.

Oh and also engaging my brain into what I am doing after taking a break. Boy, you can piece a ton of blocks wrong in a short amount of time chain piecing.
