R-Sole move

This is not as destructive as the Kaptain's nightmare but really made me look a wanker yesterday.
I spent about 1.5 hrs carefully stitching a knitted child's dress about 50 yrs old to a board covered in fabric supplied by the customer - through the buttons, in between folds and along seams - really did a good job. So my wife comes in with coffee, takes a look and asks why I stitched it on back to front - kids never had such revealing dresses in those days. Damn! Maybe it's a man-thing. All my buttons are in front of my shirts not at the back. Doing it over took even longer because the back of the board now had holes in it and the needle kept finding the wrong spot.
