My name should be goof up, lol.....I have and still have a lot of Oh S*** !!! moments. I hate it too. But I think if you are always going to have them. It seems like I un rip more that I sew sometimes, lol.

It is a very valuable lesson. I'm just grateful I didn't cut them all out and iron them all at once. Back to the drawing board.

Oh no! I got re-acquainted with my seam ripper the other day!

I don't know if Steam A Seam has changed since I used it a few years ago, but I don't iron until after the applique piece is cut out. When you peel off the paper, the Steam A Seam would stick to the fabric enought to be able to cut out the piece. I only used the iron once when all the pieces are in place.

And sometimes only f***it expresses how bad the mistake is.

That is how I learn, from all my mistakes. I am getting pretty good now.

Oh my gosh, I hope you don't mind but I am sitting here laughing outloud at what you did. Sounds like such an easy thing to do. Love those Fusion pens but not in your case. That's a real test of patience now to redraw all of those pcs. Good luck.

I feel your pain as I have done this, too....

I'm glad no one listens, when I sew. I tend to talk to things . . . seam ripper, sewing machine, etc. It's never MY fault, you see!
|
I agree with Nessie it's never my fault
