I am with Bellyboo's information and suggestions all the way. It is best to put it aside for later and buy something nice as a gift. If it is a matter of a few loose seams, it may work to try something as suggested above. But give yourself a day's break before returning to the project. Once I was making a dress and NOTHING was going well. Finally, I simply threw the project into the wastebasket , pattern and all. Sometimes it is a matter of realizing nothing is working well and it is best to put it aside for later ...or if it is really that bad, pitch it and don't look back. No such thing as quilt police!!
