The fabric is strong. It is the tiny seams. I think a scant 1/4" is the pits! I'm ready to start making mine 1/2".
Interesting. If it is a mass produced quilt? that may be the problem. It might not have been sewn w/ 1/4" seams - only trimmed to that (or something smaller?).
That may be the problem. Scant 1/4" seem to be the only way to make my blocks and points match.
