Take a deep breadth ( and some xanax, if you got it). Step away from it for a while. Then, when your ready, gret back in there. Good luck.

I have found that sometimes instructions are clear as mud :wink: Take a break and then try again :roll:

Yes, easy to do if you designed it. But, I agree with the others...it is in the writing of the directions, which are sorely lacking with some patterns. It does get frustrating sometimes. If you can, read the instructions before deciding to do a project and if the instructions don't make sense...don't do the project.

Easy is one of those words that is ... not really definative. I did a quilt once where it was claimed to be quick and easy ... well I put over 600 hours in the top .. quick as apposed to what!?? I have been quilting for many many years I concidered myself competent , so 600 hours =quick and easy ... I guess I still had a lesson to be learned... "don't believe every thing you read".
I suppose they would never sell a pattern if they wrote " will cause migranes, and have you question your sanity" on the front of the pattern.
