I've had weeks like that. I sew every day and sometimes whatever I touch turns to **********! It's so frustrating. Put that quilt away until you have the patience to deal with it and start something else. I find that the more I try to fix something the worse I make it.

Some day's we all live under "Murphy's Law". Just when I think I'm going along great I do something stupid. I think It's God's way of keeping us humble!
Those days I get out of my sewing room and crochet, knit or just chiull out and watch an old movie brcause I've found that if I keep going it just gets worse!
