Default Oi Vey bad whoopsie

I'm so mad at myself. I did something so dumb to one of my favorite patterns in my winters lane charm pack. I have been doing the simple method for pinwheels. 1/4 seam around the edges and then make two diagonal cuts. Well I got half my matched up stack sewn. Since I didn't feel like changing my bobbin because Lu will be awake soon I figured I would do some cutting.

I grabbed the four top squares stack them up all nice and pretty line up my ruler and slice it up. Then I go to make the second cut and thank heavens only did one square and went OMG NOOOOOOOO!!!!

I cut my squares for a disappearing nine patch not a pinwheel. Son of a monkey did I fudge that up big time. And the worst part they were my favorite darker tan blocks. Arghhhhhhhhhh I'm so mad at myself. Hopefully I can squeeze some pennies and get another charm pack or some yardage of that print. I'm so sad I messed them up. I'm going to get out my ripper and see if there is any way I can salvage those blocks but I don't think I can.

Ugh I guess that shows I need to step away from my cutter and machine right now. Good thing it's Halloween candy time. My house is full of feel better nummys. Lol
