I didn't know we actually had days of the week dedicated to sewing accessories. I know exactly how you feel though. I sure hope tomorrow is much, much better.
That gave me a good laugh!
:( Here's my lint roller to help you with the threads...I feel you're pain! But I'm with Cyndi - My initial reaction was a :D
Huggers, Ruby
Sorry, I had to laugh a little too :D If it makes you feel better.....here it was "go home from fabric store empty handed because they sold the piece of fabric I was going to buy that I saw the week before and didn't know how much I needed yet and wanted to get it on sale" day! :D
I had to laugh at myself (once I got over the . . ."ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnoooooooo") when I saw that my wonderful sewing was all for not. Man, I was just zooming along. Then I stopped for an iced tea and when I went back, the little sewing goblins had put all the quilt blocks in the wrong place! All ripped and redone and I made the sewing goblins go away for the day.
Tomorrow is rotary Tuesday because I got my first fabric order from Connection Threads this afternoon (and yes, it made my day sooooo much better!)
@ pcbatiks . . . you win! I hate it when I go back to the store and MY fabric is gone!
I had a seam ripper weekend...now that's pretty bad!!
I agree, the people at the store should have known I would come back.....they should have kept an eye on MY fabric for me :DQuote:

O WHATEVER!!!!!! Guess the real question is whether I do it now or go start a bonfire and turn it all to ashes.......(Maybe not a good idea, since we are having a drought......O WHATEVER!!!!!) ;)
I am glad I took the day off from sewing. Slokarma, I found that you will never like the quilt unless you take the time to correct it, and a bonfire is out of the question. Please don't look in my scrap bin, or you may find a block or two I just didn't want to rip!
I feel your pain. I had a seam ripper Monday also. After a very busy day cleaning and doing laundry, I sat down to work on my yellow bumblebee UFO. I tried doing some FMQing of some cloud/sun pattern from the material and my top yellow thread came through the bottom in a messy clump. I tried it on a practice piece and it was working great. I got a bit frustrated, if I get some time tomorrow I am going to try again. The white bottom thread was fine. I think it might be a tension problem.
Good luck on the quilt tomorrow...
