I read that post as well, and although I generally press to the dark, sometimes the seams do have a mind of their own and I go with the direction they want to. One thing I did get out of that post was to starch, which I had not been doing - so mid quilt, I started to starch as i ironed the rows I was joining, and I'm so happy I did, the fabric definatly has a better hand. Now I am looking forward to seeing the difference through the rest of the process. Thanks to everyone that posts on this Quilting Board! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
