For Christmas one year my mom made decorative holiday pillows for Christmas presents. The pillows had an angel design and the saying “I believe in Angels”. After she had all the hand stitching and decorations done on the pillows, she notice a small mishap, her pillows read “I believe in Angles”. Not the holiday message she was trying to send…

Out of curiosity–does it have to be my own? I have one that my mom gave me as a gift that is pretty funny, though she still doesn’t realize the problem…

Once when I was making a jacket for my cat, I realized I made the front inside out. Since it was done and I didn’t feel like ripping out the stitches, I decided it was cool like that and left it at that. It actually does look kind of cool.

I’d taken a class with Maureen Stapleton and had finished my first one-over-one cross stitch project. To do it I had to use my strongest reading glasses plus a magnifier; the overhead light plus two craft lights.
We had company coming so I bagged up the project, including the pattern & floss, as well as some other craft materials…in a large black bag. You see this coming….
My husband, being helpful, gathered up all the garbage, including that bag and threw it away…away as in to the garbage & picked up.
He felt awful. I felt awful. Fortunately when I told Maureen what happened and could I have/buy a new pattern she graciously gave me the pattern, and the kit. Lessons learned-craft people are the best! And never, never, never put a project in a bag without a label, in a box, in the closet.
