I try to be as accurate as I can in everything I do but it does entail a lot of "frog stitching".....you know..."rip it- rip it-rip it!" Or if I'm crocheting or knitting it's "unravel, unravel, unravel". I do it for several reasons:
1. So I can learn what I did wrong in the first place so I don't keep repeating the same mistake
2. Fabric, yarn, etc. is just too expensive now to waste it just because the finished product turned out poorly
3. If it's a gift ( which 99% of my gifts are) I want it to be as nice or nicer than anything I could purchase
