Tablemats and birthing method
I've just had my first go at making some tablemats using the birthing method. My problem is this: when I topstitch around the edge, the opening (through which the quilt has been birthed) always seems to get a little pucker in it, which I have been unable to avoid (I made 6 of them, and it happened on every one, to varying degrees). The pucker is always on the top, so it's quite noticeable. I used wonder clips to keep the opening tucked inside, perhaps pins would work better? Any hints or tips will be most appreciated!
