Default Yuck!

I stayed up an extra two hours this evening trying to finish my mini RR
and it didn't work! I'm so annoyed. I'm too tired right now to figure
out why it didn't work. - (me pouting with my tongue stuck out!)

I'm trying to figure out if I should rip it up and start over, or just
re-cut the whole thing. (I have extra fabric). I want to say that if I
had sewn more precisely maybe it would have worked, but I think that
maybe if I had cut more precisely. Oh who knows at this hour anyway.

I had fun doing it though!

Put your tongue back in your mouth before you bite it off (at least that's
what they used to tell me!).

It's frustrating to have a plan in your head that seems so logical, but when
you try it for real, it just doesn't come together the way you expected.
Take a deep breath and look at it later with fresh eyes. Not knowing what
block you chose or what the problem is, I don't have any suggestions for
fixing it, but I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that it all works out
later tonight.

Well, now I don't feel so bad. Since when did I think that Hand Piecing
would be faster than machine. What am I, Nuts?? Anyway, 3 more corners to
sew on and I'm done, but I'm not too thrilled with my end results. Mine will
go out FedEx tomorrow. We'll just have to see......
