Welcome to the Quilting Board!
This may have been shown before, but so many people ask about the 1/4" seam problem that I thought it might be helpful.
Bonnie Hunter shows another way to sew a perfect seam. When the 1/4" seam is off just a little you might try this method.

Nice tip! Thank you.

Interesting -- I will have to try that. I am surprised she wasn't slowed down.

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
The distance BETWEEN the seams is the only one that really matters.
Yes, this is so true. I wish I had named this thread "distance between seams".Originally Posted by bearisgray

I remember when Bonnie first posted this but had forgotten this great tip! Thank you for the post! Hope I remember it this time!
Wish I had seen this about a week ago!

I wonder if you could use that long wire quilting attachment instead of cardboard, you know the one meant to help you do parallel quilting lines. I tried to leave this as a comment on Bonnie's page but it wouldn't do it with my Google id.

Jean I use "the long"attachment quite a bit.and it works for me..I have only 1 eye and therefore people do not realize I have no dept perception...Try sewing with one eye closed. I think I will also try the cardboard way it seems interesting. good luck witch ever you use.
