    You've got to write that down in a quilt journal if you keep one! This is a story that will only get funnier with time. Thanks for sharing.

    Yes you did, and yes we are...LOL!!
    Don't feel bad. Tell yourself everyone does this the first time. And then the flickering light bulb goes back on.

    Believe it or not you are not alone....I did the same exact thing! Thankfully, like you, it did not take to many stop and starts to have the light bulb come on and the laughter to start.

    You know, I had to re-read your post three times to figure out what exactly you were doing. Just goes to show, I probably would have done the EXACT SAME thing!! Too funny. Thanks for the chuckle this morning!

    Too funny, I definitely got a chuckle out of it. My repair guy just told me a story about a lady that came in complaining very loudly about her janome, said it just wouldn't sew thru her quilt and kept messing up...imagine his surprise when he found her plastic stencil stitched in between the layers of the quilt!
