You can see the press & seal on some of the blocks where I'm planning to do the swirls!

The stars are Candle Quilter Stars. I made these 1/2" bigger & turned 'em down 1/4" all around.

I like your solar system quilt.
I did one last year using an Attic Window block.

I am curious about the Press & Seal.
How do you use it?
And does it stay on well while you're quilting?
