    Why???? Can't I cut out several and then see how many I mis-piece because I got the fabrics mixed??

    Is overspending on quilting supplies a sin?
    Leaving cut scraps all over the floor for days?
    Printing out every pattern you see on the web?
    Staying on the board for hours when less important things are calling to be done, like clean the house.
    Sounds like me too. Are we twins??? Roberta Marie

    Thou shalt not think "I will just trim these edges, and finish in the morning." thou shalt just go to bed. Evidently I can't run a ruler when I am tired. I had to do the project all over again... :oops:

    Time out was a good call! :thumbup: And thanks for the laughs, been there and have done it all.

    Please let us all go on breaking these commandments but prey that we don't break the other ones.
