Montjoye's sewing rules

[elegentry]

I have some little rules for sewing. Doesn't mean I always follow them. This is not rule one. We'll call it:

Sewing Rule 7.
After one has made an error, like sewing the wrong two things together. One should put the work down calmly and go do something else for a while. NOT immediately try to fix it!. If one tries, one is is in considerable danger of making exactly the same mistake all over again.

I wouldn't possibly have maybe just violated this rule would I?

Think I should finally go put away the stacks of clothes in the front room. You know, stuff that was laundered weekend before last. The pile of which have been mussed by pulling garments out from between to wear.

My worst was cutting out a pair of trousers, and then cutting the pockets out of one of the trouser legs. No undoing that mistake!

And one feels such a moron. One enters that dream-like state of disbelief that you actually DID that. So been there. Not a frame of mind one wants to be in when near to large sharp objects (like the good scissors)...
