Bunting. I guess that must be a wrong term.

The real term is "nesting" or locking together so that pins are not even necessary. I would really be a quilter if I could this.

On the latest Fons and Porter Series with her daughter, the daughter is constantly emphasizing this tip.

Somewhere I missed this special technique and now try to make it a habit to press my seams in opposite directions so they "nest, Lock, or Bunt" together. It is still a shock when I get it all going in opposite direction.

I still have trouble figuring out which direction to press besides the light versus dark.

Sorry for the bunting confusion. My husband would be so surprised if I was actually speaking football.
