I was finishing a throw for my Sister's sofa and was using a bed-sheet for the backing. It was too large so I clipped and ripped it down to a sensible size, layered spray basted. About half way down I noticed that I was running out of backing material on the right hand side, the one I line up with the edge of my table to get a straight edge, what had I done :oops: I used the seamed edge of the sheet NOT the one that I had ripped for a straight edge, so as the sheet was sewn crooked so was the seamed edge I was using :oops: :oops: :oops: did I feel stupid and annoyed, and as I had ironed the backing when sprayed I definitely wasn't going to re-layer it so now the backing has a seamed piece in it, thank goodness it is only a everyday sofa throw and the back won't be seen but a lesson learned, the hard way :thumbdown:

I have done similar things too! Cut something I didn't want to, cut a backing short, etc. Not fun, but at least fixable.

I could just spit sometimes or cry! But it is all fixable in the end. After we get done pouting!
peace :D

I've done so many stupid things when quilting I just shrug my shoulders and get new or make do and forget about it.

We all do things that we know we knew not to do. Forgive yourself. Move on and I hope you have a better day tomorrow.

Not stupid at all. It is just one of those misjudgements of life. Bite your lip (gently), curse silently and then finish it! Let the irritation go and just finish it!

Consider it a lesson....and stop whipping yourself. We all have done and will do things that are not the best of the best. I'll bet the front is beautiful!
