Exactly Louie. If it's not quite coming together don;t use all of your supplies trying to get it perfect

Hi Mary
I know how you’re feeling, the same thing happened to me last week. My first batch of seized soap was the soap swap batch, luckily I listened to Bill and had planned to do 2 batches. Funny thing is the seized batch looks awful but brighter better colours and the batch that did work the colours are so-so. I have 2 batches of soap that weren’t quite as I’d planned and usually when it’s just bung old soap for family (the norm) no problems and lovely colours, etc. The pressure to perform – I was hoping to show everyone how much I’ve learnt and grown from last soap swap but with these two they’ll be thinking I’m going backwards. I’m not doing another batch – I’ll give what I’ve done and I’m sure that it will be OK.
Don’t worry we’ll love the soap anyway (we know how much effort went into it).

I have found what I planned and had in mind for the swap has also morphed - must to my distress! do I remake, try for the desired and planned outcome again? In the past where the expectations have been just a nice usable bar I liked to see what would happen, but with this I would 'like' to have a bit more control over the outcome! plus I had a batch which seized - my fault and I should have known better. I think I find my flax weaving more relaxing.

Hmm....OK the colour has morphed into something completely different than expected but it looks like it might be very pretty. Will see how it cuts
The scent is being overtaken by one particular note now that it has been soaped. It may settle down with a bit of age
