Good Grief!

I swear, I haven't been drinking. However, this might be a warning that when one is feeling under the weather that maybe the sewing table is not the place to recover.  


Yes, I really did sew the pocket upside down and the wrong pocket piece. And after I ripped out the seam and thought things were going along smoothy...


I wasn't willing to give up and sew the side seams and remove the pockets.  Well, because they're pockets!




What can I say, I'm not perfect.  

Happy Sewing!

  2. It has happened to all of us. At least no one will ever see it.

  3. Great save! Although my heart sunk when I saw the original situation - been there and totally understand the pain of that realization. :\ Did you also go through the irrational internal discussion of how you could make an upside-down wrong-sided pocket work too?

    1. Thanks. No, I was in utter shock and disbelief that I could do such a thing after I marked the wrong sides of my fabric with a big ol' X and still, I managed to sew it the wrong way and side.
