Can You Use Starch/Best Press While Piecing and Sewing your Blocks?
I am wondering if you can use Starch or Best Press as you are sewing a block / assembling a quilt? I had some stubborn seams that did not want to lay down even after pressing two different times (thin sashing strips). I was tempted to use the Best Press to make the seams lay down and stay pressed but was wondering if they would shrink (I had not prewashed the fabrics)?
The quilt before, my half square triangles did not all lay flat (some were wonderfuly flat but some were ruffely) and I was also tempted to spritz with Best Press. Anyone do this and have good results (or bad results)??
