Sorry for laughing out loud about this. i think we have all been there and onde that, whether FMQ or just plain piecing blocks. I have FMQ'd part of the rest of the quilt before, plus other scraps on different ones. I feel for you. At least yu can probably see the stitches better on the paper, than on fabric.

I was showing a finished quilt at "show & tell" at a guild meeting & when the back was turned toward the audience I heard someone starting to CACKLE. She was turning red & people were patting her on the back. When she finally recovered she said it just struck her funny that I had appliqued a few leaves on the back of my quilt and she was thinking of the time she did that to cover up a boo-boo & thought I might have done the same. (She was right)

Has anyone compiled a translation list of some kind that can be reproduced here? Subject matter helps decypher some, but other times I'm just stumped.
Thanks

That is why I never let my grandchildren or great grandchildren into my sewing room LOL. This sounded so like me, I had to check the avatar to make sure I hadn't posted it. At least you would know where the swifter sweeper brochure was if left it there.
