I press the seam to one side and layer up the quilt and stitch all around the 4 sides. I open the seam in the center of the seam on the back and turn the quilt. I close the seam on the back by hand and I never have to deal with that edge on the out edge that is nearly impossible to turn and stitch so it doesn't show.
What a great idea!! Thanks for sharing
