Rate this Entry
Don't ya just hate it that you thought you were doing great chugging along and getting to the end when you notice this big huge mistake that cannot be over looked? Well that just happened. I was working on Tatmom's cross lunch time when I noticed the mistake. Wasn't even sure when it actually occurred but there it is a total goof.

Now I have to restart this cross from the beginning.....oh I am not tossing the bad one, I will get back to it and do retro-tatting and than finish it up later.

    I know exactly how you feel,usually you don't notice a tatting mistake until you are joining something to a piece-and the beginning is wrong.Not only do you have to take out the part you were working on-but also the previous part...sometimes you can just un tat-other times you have to start over.Both choices are oh so irritating,but I will do one or the other-because I want each piece to be as perfect as I can get it.
    Don't ya feel better when you've fixed it-even though ya feel sort of dumb-for makin' the mistake?I do,and I (almost)never make the same mistake again.

    Oh, we have ALL done that!!! I am glad you are going to go back to the piece to fix it. Easily done but oh so aggravatin'!! Hang in there!

    Yeah, I've been there too. = {

    But right now with tatting I can excuse it with "I'm learning still." I wish I could say that I don't repeat mistakes, but I sure do. I am getting more careful and counting things twice. That helps. Right now, I keep joining to the wrong picot. I don't do it a lot, but I find I keep doing it.
