    Another one is when you count your rows several times to make sure you have them all and just when you think you have them them all done you come up 1 whole row short. Not funny because its a stack and whack,but what else can you do but start from the beginning again. LOL

    It is late but I AM very happy tonight that I am not the only onre that has castrophies every day of our lives, makes me feel good that I have spent a lot of time stitch rippping , then starting over for a small 24x36 patchwork paint chip challenge in only 2 colors for a challenge in our local quilting guild, but I am ready for a sashing and border , did the initial stitching on a newly bought 221 replica, now I am going to use my new 830 to add sashing and border for it , I love all the replys to the forum , some I have done ,some I haven,t ,but it keeps all of us on our toes, and gives us lots of giggles :XD: :thumbup:

    When I loose needle and thread, later to find the thread dangeling from our dogs rear_end . He seemed unaffected by this until I went to remove it. Thank God it had the thread attatched or we would have never found it . Until it was to late. Dog is fine needle and thread were disgarded.

    I have one of those funky wooden back scratchers. It can retrieve those pesky bobbins with ease (most times). :lol:

    Glad I'm not the only one these things happen to. What a relief. I thought I was the biggest klutz.

    dontcha hate it is when your trying to be supermom to your 2 yo when he breaks his mickey mouse ears.I grab my machine put it on the bed and proceed to sew. Only to have the machine fall forward and my finger sewn instead of the elastic on the ears. Gets better I am in my jammies no bra hair a mess (not the nice jammies the holes and rags jammies) I cannot back the needle out it is stuck husband at work says call 911 I did and here they come 8 handsome men (calendar handsome)in my house and me looking like I came out of the rags magazine trying to hide the fact that the girls are down to my knees. They laughing the whole time trying to figure out how I could have done this me trying to find them the right tools to cut the needle. Then they have to pull it out. Thank God I didn't pass out!!
