    Just curious.
    I hear laughter from the Heavens and an etherial voice that says "Got ya agin'"
    I am sure that is possible, but I just haven't experienced it.
    I look forward to that Day!!

    Sometimes it helps to call it 'unsewing' rather than ripping. ;^)

    Of course the Amish require a mistake in every quilt. Can we blame it on them?

    I have to rip out and redo blocks often but the other day I had to do something I hadn't done before. take out aome quilting stitches (quite a few) and redo. I hand quilt and that really made me disgusted.
    I really don't think it happens very often if people are honest.

    Sure just draw a picture of the quilt you want to make, color it whatever you desire and draw stitches on it , you would probably have to erase something though lol Gerbie

    hate to say this out loud, BUT, today I was stitching away, happy as a clam to be at the machine again, pressed my block, and discovered that one piece was in wrong-side of the fabric out. A new low, or high, or something...

    Oh, heck no. I know exactly where my seam ripper and reading glasses (to magnify the stitches) are.
