I have learned (the hard way) that my 1/4" seam (even when using the 1/4 foot), is always more than 1/4". I have a problem with perception and so where I think I'm sewing, I'm really not. So to solve that problem, I just move the needle closer to the needle. And when I make HSTs, I cut them 1" bigger. Easier to trim down than to try to glue fabric to the edges... :oops:
