I got quite a few of the sashings sewn on yesterday and I love the little babies. Lesley, I was wondereing..can I just lay the block out and measure 1/2" from the seam line (between the block and sashing) and trim the batting 1/2" from the sewing line on each side, then sew the blocks together? Does that make sense? And if I am planning a stitch down the center of the sashing...I really don't need to sew the batting together- do I..or do I??
Hmm, I think that would work Patti but that last bit might not - because with one line of stitching down the centre of your sashing, you are not likely to be able to catch both sides of the batting at the back. That's why I did two rows of quilting in my sashing.
