Or drop the small pieces of fabric all over the floor that you have just placed in order for your quilt!!

dont you just hate it when you are sewing large seam to finish, get to the end, and you ran out of bobbin 20 miles back-lol

or when you have great plans for the day, and dh walks in screwing up your nerves and your thought plan to where you are shaking, unable to sew, and have to go to bed, only to wake up mad?

Or - you are completely on a roll sewing on the binding and you get to a seam and realise that the next piece has SOMEHOW been sewn on wrong sides together!!!

: )
so you cut it off, put it back on the same way---cut it off again--then get to the end & are two inches short !
