Hmmmm, never thought about it that way Prism99! Guess I've just been lucky so far (newbie status here, only done about 10 quilts...blush...) and I've not had any tangles but will have to change my ways as sure enough sooner or later I'll get into strife! Thanks for pointing it out to me...pretty obvious now that you've explained it....more blushing and sitting in the "dopey" corner for me!!!! haha
