This morning, after dropping mum off at the airport, I thought I would put a couple of stitches into this project before I got on with my day.This is a Britty Kitty project I started but for some reason never finished while I was commuting on the train a few years ago now.
I started stitching away and discovered that the stitching wouldn't line up. I frogged my stitching and went back a few more rows until the mistake was obvious and then put it all back in again.
And it still would not line up. I took all of it back out, frogged a few more rows again, and put it all back in.
It still didn't line up. I frogged all of it, and then kept frogging until I had taken out three quarters of the design. Then I sat and stitched it all up. And as can be seen, the cat is stitched. At 5:30pm this afternoon.
Not quite the day I had planned. And definitely reminded me why I usually insist that I frog *before* I put a piece away so it doesn't contain mistakes to trap me next time.
Well this is what being on holidays is all about, right?
EDITED to add: Well I found the album for this WIP and um ooops now I know why I didn't finish it now .... oh well .... {surreptitiously sidles off the stage}
