I'm not so concerned with the seams showing,I know after the batting is on they will not show as much ..what I am concerned about is the dark fabric showing on the edge of the seam when it is pressed over onto the white fabric, making it look like a dark line... I tried to really watch when I an sewing the two fabric together to make sure they do not over lap,but it is really hard and in some places the dark fabric shows up as a dark line and it is just a few tiny threads of dark fabric but still make a dark line..

What I have been doing is to cut a tiny bit off the seam before I press it over onto the white fabric and that is working but thought that there may be some other way to prevent this from happening...or maybe I was doing something wrong when I sewed the two fabric together..




I know now why I don't like a lot of white white fabric in my quilts..LOL..but this is the fabric she picked out right down to the pattern she wanted...don't you just hate when making something for someone, you find you don't really like it....oh well I will keep going and maybe it will look better after it is all done and quilted..thanks for your in put on this problem..
