To Cry or not to Cry--That is the Question

Piggies Win!

Charlotte-the-Tall and I got together the other night to finish up the first step on the Piggies and Kitty and get ready to start fusing.  I HATED IT!  I wanted to cry!  After ALL THAT WORK!  IT WAS HIDEOUS!

WHY DOESN'T IT LOOK LIKE THE PICTURE?!




 I could not help myself... I just threw it all up in the air!  Little piggie pieces rained down all over the room. (I would have taken a picture if  I hadn't been so ashamed of my behavior.)  But I was so frustrated!  My insides were just twitching!  If I hadn't been in the "self warming" stage of life for more than 10 years now, I'd swear I was PMS-ing.




The truly WORST part of losing my temper is that I passed the feeling on to Charlotte S.  And her Kitty was looking so nice.... I spoiled it for her, too.  For that I do humbly apologize. Charlotte, please accept my apology for spoiling your evening.

After having a short cry (have you ever cried over a project?) I picked up all the pieces and regrouped.


My neighbor Wanda, a quilter herself, had a good suggestion.  She suggested making the base of the piggie all one piece of fabric and placing the flowers on top of the base.  She even donated some pink fabrics from her stash.
So, that is where I will start next.

I couldn't bear to look the piggies in the eye last night so I avoided the Mezzanine Room.  Instead I pretended I had something more important to do...I stayed in my own apartment and organized my fabrics.  Touching fabrics ... good for the soul.
 
I'll give it a few days. Then I'll get back at it.
Those Piggies WILL NOT get the best of me!
