Making a rag baby quilt for a baby shower today and could not get my machine to sew properly. The bottom thread would not connect with the top thread. Tried everything, took out the bobbin about 6 times, rethreaded the top over and over, no luck. Just about decided I would have to take the machine in for repair and I realized I had forgot to put the presser foot on to my walking foot. Duh !! ( I have a viking with a walking foot that has several different feet ) Really felt stupid and wasted over an hour trying to sew before I figured it out.

Welcome to our world!

don't feel bad just took a FMQ class, used my single hole plate for the first time, couldn't get anything right for an hour. After which I check the manual installed it improperly go figure. sewed like a dream after that

Hey my long lost sista.

Bet you don't do that again. Don't beat yourself up, we all have the "stupid mistake" stories.

We've all been there one way or another. Wait until you start loosing everything :-)

Been there done that :lol: :lol:

Now for the good side of things, it didn't have to leave the house and it didn't cost you a thing but an hour of time. Those are two very good things. You didn't have to be without your baby.

Least u figured it out before u pd have someone tell u the mistake!!

Been there, done that!! (more than once) :)

Been there, done that. It's just the small stuff. Don't sweat it.

Oh NO! You're human! And a quilter!

At least you did not spend half an hour trying to thread your machine needle, having not to good eyesight I thought it was just me, walked away and when I returned for another try, I realised I had been trying to thread the needle right to left when it goer's front to back. Hmmmm and I just got new glasses.

Happens to the best of us.

been there, done that. :lol:

you were not stupid.

all geniuses are easily distracted. ;-)

Yes, Yes and Yes. I've been there done that.

and the worst of us! :lol:

for me, it should read: bet you don't do that again unti lthe next time--been there done that more than once
