sewbizgirl, sorry about your goose pairs!

NZquilter, why do you choose to finger press rather than use an iron? I think I have good results with pressing, now that I've learned not to use a heavy hand. I use a lightweight iron, set the seam, turn up the piece and gently run the iron along the stitching line, and then over. I then spritz with Best Press. I really enjoy the pressing part, because you get the pleasure of seeing the unit for the first time, and it's kind of relaxing.

I finished clue #4 and am now stitching my coral triangles to those units. Some of my browns (reproductions) are really clashing style-wise with my corals. I hope someday to get a more aesthetically cohesive look going in my quilting.
