Love your heart, Janice! I have repeated this mistake multiples of times AND in my younger years as well! I have learned to over buy as a result of this particular cutting handicap! I am doing better but certainly not "cured"
Ben Franklin said that experience was a dear school and a fool would learn in no other. Apparently I am working toward my "fool" status and have not yet passed that stage. BUT I am having fun and I don't pressure myself with perfection. No quilt shows for me. What happens, happens.
