flash! disater strikes pocket

The pocket was going too well I guess. I thought I had worked out the bugs in the project with the whole finding-a-wool-thread-supplier dance. Apparently not. I was adding the second little bee with an iron transfer pencil and managed to also iron a big blob of blue plastic onto the pocket as well.

It's my own stupid fault, I should never have had that thing so close with a hot iron about.

Is that thought supposed to make me feel better?

I've put the pocket in the freezer, in the hopes that I can get the majority of the plastic off the textile but I'm afraid the fabric has been stained a lovely bright blue. A half inch strip along the edge of the left side.

How could I be SO stinking STUPID!

I could just sit down and weep. It's not even finished yet and... really I could ring my own neck. *waaaaaaahhhhh*

I wonder if I could cut the pocket down so that the blob is incorporated in the seam allowance? Probably not with my luck. Meah!

Oh yes and I can't do the snail. There isn't a good place to put him. I'm bummed. And that was before the blob incident. Did I mention I have a headache, have had one of those "almost headaches" all day? Have I ever mentioned that life in general stinks? Well it does.
