Great looking feathers, so sorry for all your "unsewing". I'm also a 'been there, done that", but I managed to do it on my quilting frame, still not sure how I did it

Oh my, don't you hate it when that happens? You are in good company. Can't believe how many stupid mistakes I make. Have been quilting since '89, and still make lots of mistakes.

OMG, so sorry you had to rip it out. I can't tell you how many times I have done that too!

I have done that a few times and knowing me, I will probably do it again. I bought a magnifier with a light that clamps to the table that has been a wonderful investment! It helps so much when picking out stitches! It gets a lot of uses in my sewing area. I got it half price at Michaels- about $20. Worth every penny.
Beautiful quilting by the way.

I just did this yesterday on a small quilt for the couch. It was the first time for me. Took me a half hour to rip out the stitch's along the edge. After all the ripping its something that I sure will watch for from now on. Looks like you got lots of company that did the same thing. One of those learning experiences that's for sure.

I have one of those magnifier lights too and just love it. It is one of the best investments that I have bought.
