Default That one quilt...

...where nothing goes right.

I'm working on a tee shirt quilt for myself. I decide to to it QAYG in 4 rows. During quilting of the first row, I use the wrong foot and destroy one of the tees. I get a replacement shirt with the same logo from a friend and patch it in, and finish quilting the row. I look at it on my bed, and the spacing is all wrong and the thread I used to quilt it clashes. So the first row is now under the seamripper being busily un-quilted.

I decide to take a break from that and work on the second row tonight. One of the shirts refuses to stick to its stabilizer. I thought I'd got it, the as I sew it into place, the stabilize starts falling off in big patches.

I'm not even halfway done with this and it's already a disaster. Have you all had quilts like this where nothing worked?
