I've quilted many years, and have become experienced enough to know the limits to my patients. Recently, l started buying more acquilt go dies ( love those BOBs. ) Most are a joy to cut/ sew...however, the one l have problems with is a pretty little 8" ' Hattie's choice'. There are similar but minutely different triangular shapes that are difficult to tell appart. I've never considered myself dyslexic, but l find l must remove/ resew pieces on this one at times. Even with carefully orienting straight of grain correctly and using a scant 1/4" seam, they are often not same size as next. I've learned to just put alternate blocks between, or sashing, because placing them in rows together the junctions of all thos seams tend to be bulky, even if pressed open.
