I just wanted to thank the person who posted about using a glue stick to get your seams to match up perfectly. I tried doing this this week and it worked perfectly!!! I was so pleased with the results. It didn't make it any harder for my machine to stitch my pieces and for once my seams are actually lining up like I want them to. I gotta say- this has been a real struggle for me. I've been using it to make a simple Big Stylish Block Quilt and I'll post pics as soon as I am finished piecing the top. I've been wanting for so long to make a quilt with the Star type blocks but have been discouraged because I couldn't even get my straight seams to line up, let alone points, but now that I learned about this I'm gonna try one of the stars asap. So- to wind it up- Thank you Debbieumphress! You've changed my quilting life for the better.
