Cut it all out and nothing seems match. I just turned out the light and left. I really hate when that happens. I was really excited to get this one done. Maybe tomorrow.....

Haven't we ALL done that!! They go into orphan block piles or are used to cut up for other projects, or better yet, hide them in the back of your shelves to find a year later and see your progress!

Yes, I've had that happen. It's best to just walk away and wait until you've calmed down before you tackle them.

Just did it myself last night with what I am working on, I just smiled took a deep breath, cut some more and thought about the next time I'll just cut less and do a preview block
