My LA quilter gave me worlds of battng scraps that she didn't want and her customers didn't want. I spent a couple of hours with a ruler and a rotary cutter getting the edges straight (yes, I know some people want the edges curvey) and then I butted the edges and zigzagged them together on my sewing machine. You don't need to press them. No one can tell where the seams are once the project is quilted and you can feel good about how trifty you are. Merry Christmas. froggyintexas
