    Some days I spend more time ripping out than stitching. This has been one of those days. How about you?

    Should be ripping but I packed it away for another day. Sewed every piece wrong, instant attitude, it's better off in the drawer for now.

    50/50. Been a few weeks since I've done piecing. Ripped out uneven sewing ( edges not even), stitching right side to wrong side. Ugh!

    I had a couple of days this past week when it felt like all I did was rip out stitching. I seem to go through phases where "rippit, rippit" becomes my daily mantra!

    I am working on some easy charity quilts right now so fortunately I am doing more stitching than ripping!! (Keeping my fingers crossed!)

    Yes, I've been sewing on a childs blouse and ripped out 2 times. I know this isn't quilting, but it's sewing. I'm gonna quilt too. If I do as bad as this blouse, I think I'll stop for the night. I think I will anyhow.

    The quilts I've been working on are so simple that I haven't been doing much ripping lately -- that is a good thing!

    I am a very good ripper! I've lost my quilting mojo again so I'm working on making myself a dress. Very challenging.
