Thanks Tiffany, yes i've heard doing it this way makes it nicer too. Sooo, when you've done it this way, did you hand stitch or machine stitch the pieces together?
I machine piece most everything so I machine pieced it but hand quilted it. I honestly could not have told you where the seam line was when I quilted it. Seemed to work great so I'm not changing anything the next time I do it. I figure if it works for you, don't change a thing!
Sounds like Jackie does hers the same way.
