If I need to rip a project out, I use my Rotary Cutter... Must be very careful not to cut your fabric, but Eleanor Burns always rips that way...Lot faster..Just a suggestion...

Oh no! I'd take the advice from others who have commented and find a creative way to fix your problem because I know we all HATE to rip out stitches.

I just did a whole bed-size quilt with the feed dogs up! Fortuanately (or unfortuanately) for me it doesn't look much different then my regular FD-Down quilting! lol

I agree I would not start to tear out. There are tons of patterns as well as your own sense of style. Take a breath and finish that baby!!!

So sorry that happened. My trick for cutting stitches out quickly is using a flat razor and cutting the stitches a couple at a time. It works much quicker for me than a seam ripper.

I have done something similar and had to go buy more fabric. I now take the time to pull the boarders out of the mix and set aside with a note in a ziploc.

Back in the Dark Ages, I learned to rip using a single edge razor blade - still my preferred method. Having trouble finding these blades now (and hand tremors), I "rip" by cutting every 3rd stitch - from one of the wrong sides - with curved tip embroidery scissors, then pull the fabrics apart. Try it; it's sure cuts down on ripping time.

If I had a dollar for every time I screwed up I would be rich!!!! Take heart, it's only fabric.

If you can I would buy some more jelly roll strips. Expensive I know but it would save you all that ripping. Good luck
