NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After stitching for 5+ hours, I realized that I'm one stitch too far to the right and have to pick everything and start that part over in order for it to work with the rest :cry: :cry: :cry:

This is after I spent 2 hours on a part that I pulled a bit too tightly on so it started to pucker and I had to undo all of that so basically I've done more harm than good... :banghead:

Today is not my day. I think its time to go to bed now that it's 4AM and I'm ready to cry out of frustration...

Thank you so much! Everything is great, and I will definitely be able to use the hussif! Where did you get the Tetris fabric, BTW? It's adorable!

Congratulations Katdun! Pregnancy is not fun, I don't remember "glowing" with either of mine. And I'm still on the waiting list, and don't mind, I'm just really excited to be a part of the swap. It's been brilliant!
Also - well done about22over7 - that is absolutely gorgeous!

-hugs- I know how you feel, I've started and abandoned several projects for this swap and have only in the last few days found something I can pull off! -passes the booze- (P.S. Crying might actually help! Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything... lol!)

Update from me- been stitching like a mad woman for the last couple days and I should have no problem finishing in time to ship on Monday =D

This is number two for me, so I was pretty much expecting this. haha. I hardly had anything for morning sickness last time around and bragged about that fact, so karma will teach me a lesson with this one. :blush: Just waiting patiently for second trimester, that's the best (less/no morning sickness, teeny cute baby kicks, and you don't feel like a planet yet). But anywho, I finished my project today! Took all day and I had to recruit help at the end, but it is done! Now to write up a note and put it in the mail on Monday. :yahoo:
