All of a sudden I don't feel so bad. Thanks everyone. :lol:

I still think I won the dumb dumb prize so far.

Oh, I have another good one.

On my last quilt, I measured and remeasured my qty of fabric for my border, calculating the widest possible border using all my fabric. I came up with a 3" border, not very happy, but it would have to do. After cutting everything, I had more than half my fabric left. I could have made my border much wider than I did, I don't know what I did wrong :(

The worst thing I did was sew a block together wrong. Not too bad you might think. Just take it apart and resew it, right? Well it's a little more difficult, when you don't notice until the quilt is already quilted and ready for the binding. My mom's quilt still has the error in it to this day. She's never said anything. So I don't think she's even noticed. But it's pretty obvious, if you look at it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

You reminded me: so I took the blocks apart - but it was the wrong blocks. When I finally took the right set of bad blocks apart, I sewed them back in exactly the same WRONG way. DUH!

How abt the time (before we put bindings on quilts) I put right fabric sides together with batting, sewed all around, left opening to turn inside out and when I turned it --- the BATTING ENDED UP ON THE OUTSIDE.....
I HATE RIPPING..... just today I was workiing on hand applique and corner was flipped under and YES! I DID! sewing thru it... Did I mention - I HATE RIPPING..... grrrrr.....

You certainly won the MOST EXPENSIVE dumb price!!! :mrgreen: How DID you get it fixed?

Once i was sewing along and forgot i left a needle threader on the sewing machine bed. They have a large metal tab on them next thing i knew i had sewn it to the back of what i was working on i even saved it enjoy the pic lol.

I can't believe they used to come with instructions.

Yes lol but it didnt stop me from sewing through it lol
