I'm ripping today.

Sigh.

Ripping. :o

I should be stitching but we're about to move, so no sewing or ripping is happening right now!

I have days like this too often. I'm still looking for the 'un-do' button on my computerized sewing machine. Can't seem to find it...

'I stitch, therefore I rip' kind of sums me up. I am trying to be more 'mindful' and focus on the task at hand, but I have had a lot on my mind of late. Hand sewing binding on in the evenings, so I can't really muck it up.

I'm a person, that as usual. Sew's and rips, also. My sister/law got me this heart shape wooden medallion. On this heart shape, it says--"As you sew, so shall ye rip". It has a wooden pair of scissor attached to the heart also. And as I sew, and rip. My sister/law comes to mind.

I am mostly stitching but then had to rip out a border on a placemat.

Making a baby quilt and have the pieces on my design wall. Moving pieces around to find the best color combination before I sew it together. Trying not to obsess about it, but I've moved things around a little several times already. Then I walk away, come back later and see if I still like it that way. Design walls sure are helpful.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who does as much ripping as sewing. Divokittysmom, I've done the same thing!!!! Today was more sewing than ripping. :thumbup:
