I sure didn't know that when I started to quilt that there were so many tiny little things I would need to learn to make these quilts so beautiful. Thanks for all the great tips.

Jan, I was so impressed with your computer generated art work. Great job!

I have been shying away from strip sets due to bowing even when using half the WOF pieces. With some new tools and pressing ideas I might just try them again. Thanks everyone.

Stitching the seams from alternate ends eliminates the bowing, so try that as well as the pressing tips. Stitch the first seam and then stitch the second one from the end you ended the first, the third from the end you ended the second, etc.

I just ordered the long one. I figure I'd rather pay the person who came up with the idea than drive 1/2 hour to town and find a p;ace that sells this specific piece of wood. I always buy from the inventor, always! I figure they pay for the ads, which cost a lot, and they came up with the idea, which is pretty cool, so I give them credit. They are usually quilters themselves trying to make a buck.

My dh made me a pressing stick by splitting a 1" dowel rod down the middle and sanding.
