I had this problem too. It was (like you) driving me crazy! I bought two books ...nothing. I was complaining to a lady at the quilt store and she was a teacher who gave me this very tip. Who knew?

She also said that I should always use a scant 1/4 inch seam on all my piecing, that she gave this tip to all her students. And that the pros were always in the habit of doing this for acurate piecing. Kind of maddening huh? When you buy a 1/4 inch foot, why don't they just make it scant 1/4 inch?? Ha ha ha .... Oh well the rant is over girls. Sorry .....


...I have wondered the very same thing!
Is it just me...I just discovered last night that when I am replying, If I can't remember somebody's name or whatever, I can scroll further down this page and see the posts! what a help for my sometimes foggy brain. I just love this place, so many 'helps' for someone who NEEDS it, lol! :D

P.S. ...yeah, lol, rose marie, what is eleanor burns way of doing flying geese? can u point a direction or book, please?
