'chciki' What kind of problems did you have? I have taken classes from Bethay Reynolds and as I said have made many stack and whack. The One-Block Wonder book prepares and cuts fabric the same as Bethany Reynolds. My problem with this metod is: you stick the pin carefullly through all layers at same point, OK. For me when I pin the layers they always slip just a tad, so this time I think I will use big stapler, after I've put pins through points. Also did you use full width of fabric, becuse that looks very cumbersome?
