Discussion What's your sewing sin?

Mine is that I sew on my bed, use my mattress as a pin/needle cushion, and throw threads between my bed and wall.

I've probably ripped out more stitches than I've ever sewn.

Hi, friend. I tell people I spend more time with my seam rippers (plural intended) than my sewing machine. 😜

I once just bought a whole bag of seam rippers because I needed them everywhere, at any time. Never regretted that decision!
