Yep, I have sewn in "opposite" directions when making lap quilts but decided not to with this big one as it would mean having a lot more bulk under the machine every alternate row and this would increase as I continued with each row. I opted to sew in the one direction, starting from the middle and working outwards so that I would have less bulk under the machine each time. Have I misunderstood this principle?
