I had that kind of day yesterday, trying to paper piece stars. Three times, I placed the fabric to far to one side and had a "hole" in the pattern. I gave up and folded fabric instead. That's the great thing about a stash, there's always some organizing to do.

I cut with my husband. Two people checking directions and measurements is better than one, we've found. Usually don't have too many cutting mistakes now. He doesn't mind running the rotary cutter. Especially when we can use the TruCut rulers and rotary cutters. Saves a lot on my wrists.

Been there, done that. The other day I was trying to make 2 pillowcases to go with the quilt I gave to our DGD at Christmas. Took me 3 days to finally figure the directions and then I wasn't really happy, but she's 3,so I doubt she'll go to the "quilt police". I could blame the directions, but it was most likely the person reading them.
