I just finished ripping out a section on my Merry Cox piece that was over 1....It is (was) a pain in the butt. Little tiny stitches that have to ripped out - praying you don't break the floss. But I got it ripped out and re-stitched the correct way. Almost finished the scissor fob (if I hadn't had to rip out, I would have gotten it done!!) I am making progress. I have a time table set for myself but don't want to say it out loud in case I don't stick to it.
Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday - the start of Lent. I feel like I'm 10 again trying to decide what to 'give up' for 6 weeks. You remember how that was 'I promise not to fight with my sister' only my sisters live hundreds of miles from me. Then there was 'I'll do as my Mom says and not agrue' like that ever worked...LOL I was thinking potato chips but let's be honest, I couldn't go 6 weeks without a 'salt' fix. There's always the good old stand by - giving up CANDY!! I'll have to make a decision by morning!!

Wow, ripping without breaking the floss-- that does sound like a pain in the butt. At least when I'm ripping quilt stitches I can cut them! See you soon--
ugh and was it silk? ripping out silk over one is brutal. I finished the border and the alphabets on the front and back of the needle book. I'll be amazed if I have this done in time though.
