That was frustrating

Bad news!  When I took the 3 two row segments and put them together, I was in a bit of a hurry.  So, (you know what's coming next, don't you?) I screwed up.  I put them together upside down and just wrong.  I had to take apart the 3 2 row segments and put them back together again.  I got two of them put back together and decided to take a little break.

I sewed together the first row of the last two row segment and I had every square going in the wrong direction.  Wow, that was really stupid and this was a bad sewing day.  I took that row all apart and spread it out on the table again and left my sewing room.  I needed a breather.

Sometimes things just don't work out and you have to go back, take a deep breath and start all over again.  Sometimes multiple times.  At least in sewing, I am guaranteed eventual success.  In other aspects of life, not true. 

I will try again tomorrow.  In the meantime, I will post a picture of a quilt I made successfully to motivate myself to carry on.


Here's a door quilt I made for back to school time.  Sometimes we learn lessons in places besides a classroom, sometimes it is in the sewing room.  Once again I learned to slow down and make less mistakes.

Talk to you tomorrow!
