What is the record for the most times a seam has been ripped out then resewn? *sigh* Probably different categories for experience, I'm in the low intermediate.
This is embarrasing to admit. Just a hat. I kept sewing the lining in the wrong place. Then I finally got the lining straighted out and now it's waaaay to small. I've used the pattern before, but I've got the dumb.
After ripping out 3 times, my process goes something like this:
1. What is wrong with the pieces being joined that they won't go together properly 2. Try again 3. Take a break 4. Try again 5. Hand baste it first 6. Try again 7. Go get a drink of something nice 8. Try again 9. Reconsider if I am being too picky 10. Try again 11. Wad it up in a ball, throw it against the wall and try again tomorrow
Heh heh, while I enjoy blaming others for everything wrong, and Amby is close at hand. It's just me. So is sewing a left brained activity? That would explain my problems, because I keep making the same mistake over again such as sewing the lining side out, repeatedly. My brain doesn't feel like it's kicking in.

But the drink of something nice sounds like a winner.
