Stupid stupid ...

Post by JudyWoo » Tue Jan 29, 2008 11:49 am

I just messed up really bad and cut 32 squares wrong ... and the pieces are very, very small so I'll probably never have a use for them except maybe for confetti. I'm simply going to walk away from it for a while and sit in a quiet spot and eat donuts and drink some tea. :(

You are not alone by any means. Sometimes when I do things like that I cannot believe how dumb I am. But I usually have some chocolate and mutter to myself alot & tomorrow it goes into the scrap bag. LOL

I love a cup of hot tea. . . . and the donuts sound luscious!

You'll probably laugh at your confetti tomorrow.
Have Fun,

I've done that with blocks I've sewn, but just didn't work--ugh! I just put it all in a baggie & file it under UFO. Someday I'll rework it, or not. LOL

In the meanwhile, hope you can forgive yourself & who knows? Maybe you will use it for confetti?

We've all done that. VERY frustrating! That just means that God didn't like the pattern or colors either. Buy some more cotton and start over, lol :o) Amie

Someone once said "It's only fabric." Buy more.

Yep, you're not alone. When I did something like that it was the last of that fabric and no way to fix it. Just dump it and work on something else for a while.
