Agree that Jennys videos are great. She inspires many a new quilter. However I've found her method of sewing all the way around 2 squares hard for a newbie to handle the bias edges that are stretchy. Quick and easy sometimes can be a quick way to frustration later. I think for a newbie to hst's the best way would be the way Jan had suggested in a previous post or by using HST paper. The draw back to papers is that they too can be stretched out of shape when ripping off the paper. Please don't attack me I love Jennys tutorials, and watch them all. The best way to find the method that works for you is to try them all on some scrap fabric. You many end up liking Jenny's method and be better able to handle the bias edges than I could, after all I'm no expert like Jenny!
