Arrrgh! Mistakes only happen at the end

Well, that's when I usually find them anyway.

I was doing the last bit of tidying up on a top, stitching threads in, trimming bits etc etc, when I thought...

Hmm, that sleeve doesn't look right. Of course not, it's inside out!

So now I've to unpick that side & take the sleeve out & re-do it. And I thought I'd finished for the day. Luckily it's a knit & the front & back are the same pieces so no changes to be made otherwise. just as well as there's nothing but wee scraps left.

Ah well, have a cuppa then back at it.

Yes, you find them. But first you have to trim and topstitch.

 :) Hilarious.  :) Probably why I now favor raw edged "finishes" whenever I can get away with them.
Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.
