    When this happens, I use a tiny dot of Elmer's white school glue in the seam and then iron it to make a glue "pin". This doesn't shift the way pins sometimes do.

    At least, you are wise enough to quit. Me, I go ahead and undo and then do the same stupid thing again and agian. I am learning though. Put it up and try again another day.

    At least quilting is more forgiving than gardening.When I hit a dry spell, due to life interfering with my plans, the quilts-to-be quietly sat & waited. The garden died.
    It'll all work out!

    When I read "I quit" I thought that you were giving up on quilting. It is nice to know that you are not.

    Have a great day,

    I pin at every seam and then ease in the extra between the seams. I may use 6-8 pins to an inch if I have to.
