Anyone ever have a bad quilting day?
#1
Just venting here about my crappy sewing day. My Downy quilt is all kinds of puckered on the back, new project...simple patchwork using a charm pack...none of the seams want to even up, another project was just tossed, because the fabric is too thin and cheap looking. Ugh...anyone else have days like this?

I had a Downy quilt that just was a disaster - I ripped out every seam - redid the binding twice then finally finished. I didn't want to put my name on it. I never had as much trouble with any other project.

We all have those kind of days. I think that i ripped out more stitches on some quilts than I kept but it made me so mad that I just had to finish it just because... I just put it aside and either work on something else, or wait a day or two and then it doesn't seem so bad. Slow and steady always wins the race!!!!
