Just laugh and say you are "frog sewing" - - - rip it, rip it, rip it!

Making those kinds of mistakes is called "quilting keeps you humble", lol. I love my Clover, keep misplacing it so have 3 of them, lol.

The seam ripper is more important than my sewing machine.

That usually means that my brain is tired. I just walk away from it for a little while and do something else. Sometimes wait til the next day, then rip and sew right. This sounds so trite, but I don't mean it to be, just that I do that so much and finally found a sort of workable solution for me. Good luck. I'm sure we all feel your pain.
