    As my momma used to say, maybe you're just holding your mouth wrong, LOL!

    Frustrating, isn't it. :? Hope tomorrow will be a much better day.

    I agree w/ "Jan in VA" - but my Dad always said "you're not holding you toungue right!"

    Tomorrow is another day - after a good night sleep - the project will look less daunting (((hugs))).

I guess it is time to give it a rest for the day. Sorry, just venting.:(
    I'm with you lovie, I havent been able to quilt for two days because of the two I am working on, one has to be machine quilted on the dr table and I cant pick up the machine to put it on the table and the second, my OBW had to be unsewn all along the bottom nine inches or so because it was puckering and I dont know how to fix it. I am very frustrated at this point...so I have not worked on them until I get my calm back. Have a good night and see your project with new eyes tomorrow. 8-) :roll: ;-)

    Some times it's best to leave it alone for a while and come back later. So frustrating.

    Sounds like the old full moon is causing some stress in quilterland. Everything always looks/works better after chocolate, ice cream or dessert and a good nights rest. I'm sending you a Quilter's {{{{{HUG}}}} now isn't that better.

    Been there, done this!!!

    Tell you what, I'll have a drink for you, and you nap. Then try again in the morning.
