Those prints were 60% off??? How did I miss that? Are they still on sale... like for Memorial Day? I have a few of those prints already but might need to go take a look if they are still on sale. (Like I didn't just buy a truckload of fabric while in Paducah!) I can really see those in the Gypsy's Wife quilt. Will be stunning.

Aren't those oranges wonderful?

I guess I started out pressing my seams towards the darker colors, but eventually just gave up and started letting them go wherever they wanted to. I think I was even pressing from the top side. Sacriledge, I know, but it worked. My shirt fabrics were a bit heavier than your quilting cottons, tho. Since you are using whites I think I'd press away from the whites. What you have done so far looks great. Your quilt is going to be so pretty. Mine had to be MANLY.
