Posted - Jul 15 2009 : 11:42:12 AM Sometimes , I wonder why the heck do I sew??? I have goofed up 2 aprons this past week they are suppose to be easy revereable ones?? Well, some way or other I goofed them up and they aren't turning out right. I am going to take them apart and make 2 ; and the heck with them. ![](icons/icon_smile.gif) It seems lately when I sew I am always goofing it up!! What is wrong with me.? Maybe I should stick with crocheting and knitting; that way I can just unravel I can remember my dear deceased grandmother teaching me to crochet If she didn't like it she would say " Now Sheila, you know that ain't the way that goes." she would make me "rip" it out and do it again ![](icons/icon_smile.gif) I miss my dear sweet gandma she has been gone about 11 years now and I still miss her So Anybody goofing up like me?? Please don't be shy hugs sheila

Posted - Jul 16 2009 : 11:09:18 AM I 'goof' up quite a bit myself. I started an adorable muslin bunny complete with pantaloons, dress and apron. I decided to make the clothing first and had to rip out the dress twice as it just wasn't neat enough for me. Then, and here I thought I was being so careful and putting the head on completely straight, I ended putting it on sideways and I have been sewing for years! Once again I had to rip something out. But she is finished now and sitting in my craft room. I named her Beatrix Bunny after Beatrix Potter. I got a bit frustrated, but I am glad that I finished her.

Posted - Jul 15 2009 : 1:36:41 PM Sheila, we all make goof ups and mistakes. I mean really, we wouldn't be normal if we didn't. I sometimes just have to walk away for the time being and do something TOTALLY unrelated. It calms me down amd gets my mind off of the boo boo. Sometimes I even just sit down with a cup of tea and read a book or magazine for 10 min.
Hugs and smiles

Posted - Jul 15 2009 : 12:21:45 PM LOL!! I goof things up too!! You made me laugh, I just decided to take a break from my latest goof up... and here is your post!!![](icons/icon_smile.gif)
For me, if I try to hurry a project along, that is when the trouble starts. . . I know better and you would think I would learn from all my previous rushing along errors! No worries, simply need to slow down a little and concentrate on what I am doing.

Posted - Jul 15 2009 : 11:48:00 AM It seems that when I have been away from a craft it takes me awhile to get it back in the grove too. I usually will do some mending or something first to get in to it again.
