I persevered.
My whole purpose was to *practice* new techniques. Paper piecing (I've only done one and it was not a complicated pattern), and a Lone Star. Oh yeah, and a mini. So to practice, I kept doing it until it was right. Thankfully I was using 20lb computer paper or I would NOT have had any paper left to keep piecing!
Good news. I've just finished the 2nd "arm" of the star. The 2nd time around was MUCH quicker. I only ripped one seam once!!

LOL, just the other day with a wall hanging, I was trying to get the binding on. 4-5 times to get it right! I was wondering if I hit a new world record but if I did, you just beat it!

mine's 3 unless it is near the end of putting a block together and the rest of the block looks good. then I'll give it just one more try. if it's still bad, I'll put it aside and start a new block. may or may not go back to the 'troubled' block.
