Just been thinking about this and decided to ask all my quilting friends (and heroes, I might add) what they think.
Love, love, LOVE this site!!!
And thank you, in advance, to all who share!!
I sew 1/2 3/4 5/6 7/8
Then I sew 2/3 6/7 and 9
Then I sew 4/5
I do it this way because it is easier and prevents quite a bit of stretching.
I am sure there are lots of ways, this is just what I do.
