Default 30 Tips for Making Quilts
Some of these are really simple, "why didn't I think of that", and some are great new ideas.

I have a bunch of those office clips, so why did I just buy 50 Clover Wonder Clips?

Nice tutorial. And, I love those office clips. My life would not be the same without them.

I think one of the most crucial tips is to do the 1/4" seam allowance test. Dont just rely on the "foot". My blocks impoved dramatically once I did this.
