Is it just me....
I am new to everything and as an added challenge upgraded my sewing machine on Saturday...Last night my goal was to make a very simple tag for my first ever rag quilt (first ever any quilt)... I made 3 different "test" tags and when I got things like I wanted (and pretty darn good too - see - I am giving myself credit for doing something new & unfamiliar) I attempted the real tag.....EVERYTHING went wrong! While I was practicing, things got progressively better - no puckering, straight(ish), etc... when I started the real thing everything went wrong! I am laughing this morning and ready to jump back in, but last night, not so much....:mad:

Of course it messed up on the GOOD tag. Isn't that the way everything goes?
|
Just keep trying, it is bound to get better.
|
think of every tag as a practice tag.
maybe less pressure is all you need. :) |
Today will be a better day!!!!
|
Just keep on trying! You will get it!!!!
|
What do you mean by a tag? A quilt label?
|
At least you know you CAN do what you are trying to do!
