I always sort my fabrics by project as soon as I get home. But the border fabrics for two of the three tops (all scrappy as all get out) is yellow, hence my mixup. The whole time I was sewing it in I was thinking "this looked better in the store. I don't like this fabric." Well, no wonder!
When "lifting stitches" (my mom's more positive terminology), I usually snip the bottom thread every inch or two depending on the strength of the fabric and the stitch length. Then by pulling the to thread it comes right up in one long piece. Kind of like opening a bag of dog food. lol
Today was a day I just had to step away from the sewing room...for my sanity's sake.
As Scarlett said, "After all...tomorrow is another day!"
