Hehehe... corners. I got a pattern once that told me to "square" my corners by sewing folded triangles into them. Best plan ever! lol. Makes me so happy. I had to take remedial cutting classes as a child, so anything that can help in that department works for me.

And I've also seamed together backing fabric; and I've seamed borders, too. gasp! To top everything off, on a quilt for my niece, I apparently didn't have a large enough seam allowance for one of my squares, so it tore open when I was quilting. Did I tear the whole quilt apart like a good little quilter? No. I just grabbed my trusty little applique needle and whip stitched the seam back together and yes, even though the stitches are tiny, they show on the quilt top if you're really looking for them. What can I say? I sew on top of a computer desk (so the entire table is to the right of where my chair sits) -- that's probably a crime too. lol.
