Last night I took on the sewing of a new cushion cover for my kitchen bench. I thought I’d go all fancy and use piping to edge it neatly.
I spent the first two hours cutting, pinning, and sewing piping. I spent the third hour ripping it all apart. Then, I was so mad I decided to try it again!!!! I even googled tips and tricks and couldn’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. After failed attempt number two, I had to quit due to the lowered night time temperature in the house and in the interest of my sanity.
The bright side? I had the opportunity to lie awake considering options and reworking the project in my head for hours. I “arose” to the challenge this morning, determined to make this stupid thing work.
Third time’s a charm.
