Lol I just realized I messed up on my dds quilt and Instead of ripping it out I spent forever redesigning it to make it look good I just hate ripping.

Yup, I agree it's a small thing, but small things can be frustrating and I feel your pain. I'm working on a family reunion quilt that absolutely, positively has to be finished, quilted and sent to Crete, NE before June 20. Wish me luck. I just spent about 3/4 of an hour "unsewing" some of the blocks because I put them in upside down and backwards. It's after 10PM, I'm tired, so I put the blocks away until tomorrow. Why, oh why did I have to pick a 25-patch block? Oh, I remember, the block is "Sister's Choice" aqnd I'm making it in memory of my only sister who passed away 2 months after the last family reunion 2 years ago. I'm glad now that she insisted that I go with her, despite 2 1/2 days each way. I'm hoping that by making the quilt I can work through missing my best friend. I did, however, get a twin-size quilt top done for her great-granddaughter that we were going to work on together. Thank God for quilting, it's my passion, my stress reliever, etc., erc. Tomorrow's another day, and I'm sure I'll miess up at least one more block before I'm done. Hang in there.

I am very familiar with Jack. Had a date with him earlier today. Ha ha. I think a seam ripper is an essential for most quilters.

.......and in the long run, you will be SO happy you took that small amount of time to correct your mistake, every time you look at the table runner. C9P
p.s. from now on, I'm calling my seam ripper "Jack" - love it!!! :lol: |
I'm embarrased to say how many times it has happened to me. So I can truly say I understand. You'll feel better after you fix it. :):):)
|
Good. Take a break and all will look better.

It is really just a small thing, an annoying small thing, but a small thing none the less. And you will be much happier after your date with Jack (the ripper...gotta love this!)

I have burnt out 3 rippers . LOL.

All is well with the world.....til the next time. Who's turn will it be??
