Have you ever done this??
I like to test my tension before I start machine quilting and I just sandwich a small piece to sew on until I get it right. So, my little test piece, unbeknownst to me, got under the piece I was quilting. Now you would think I would notice that the fabric had gotten much thicker - but nooooooo.
I mean really, this was not just one layer of fabric, it was two layers of fabric and one of batting - how did I miss that??

Didn't see it until after I finished all the quilting and turned the piect over to "admire" my handiwork. Handiwork indeed - more like klutzywork. Had to rip out all the quilting in that section of the quilt. Have you ever ripped out machine quilting? NOT FUN.
Live and learn - well, live anyway.
