Beautiful quilting so so sorry, it is a pain to rip it all out, but when it is done you will be happy it looks so great.

Been there, done that! If I put a few basting pins on the edges, I am better about avoiding the folds. Your stitching is beautiful!

Been there too. Twice on the same quilt. My danger area is the corners.

That is so heartbreaking. I am so sorry, don't be so hard on yourself, your only human.

I actually did this while hand quilting, but caught it before it went too far. Leave it to me to do THAT...
