You fold back along the line and trim the seam allowance to 1/4 inch. The 1/4 inch seam allowance is where you sew the next piece to and you reiron the freezer paper down. Clear as mud, right? You really need to see the pictures, I found one on the net from a blog I think in Oregon? Here is the one I saw....http://oregoncoastalquilters.org/Lin...ssPiecing.html I don't know if this address will work but it will give a starting point.
Thank you so much for posting the site.
A friend was trying to explain this method to me yesterday and I could not envision it at all.
I see it perfectly now thanks to you.
