On my first quilt, I didn't get the SCANT 1/4 inch thing... so many of my blocks didn't fit right... but I was told to go ahead and it would all work out... with the quilting and the pressing... and it did.. The next time I did a quilt.. I said to myself... scant is less then 1/4 meaning with the 1/4 inch foot you can't see the fabric, I also put masking tape several layers thick from the needle to be my quide.
In the end, as said by Debra "the warmth and love you put into it is the important part. "
