I've been reading and learning from all your ideas. I want to improve the accuracy of my 1/4 in. seam. When I sew clothing, I "fudge" the seam allowance to get the fit I want. Eating too much? make the seams allowances smaller. So, I've starched some scraps (another new concept for me) and cut them into squares. I'm trying to get into the leader-ender habit. That will keep me remembering just where that 1/4 in. seam is. And in about 40 yrs, maybe I'll have an Irish chain quilt!
