How many quilters use a anchor cloth when sewing small squaresof fabric?

i do sometimes

I do if I remember!

I don't remember to but should.

Do you mean like a starter? I do that all the time. Are you at Ft Leonardwood? just wondering, spent 9 years there and we called it misery all the time!

I always do, in fact I start out with blocks for another project :wink: here is a tute I made describing what I do :D:D:D

I typically try to use my straight stitch plate so I don't need to.

yes it is called a started too, No I am not at fort leonard wood, Cape girardeau area.. Its getting better here ..

I do I have had too many ruined because I didn't

I do two projects at a time, so that I don't have to use starters or enders. I alternate, and then I do not have to cut threads until the bobbin runs out. For example I needed a brainless project to finish today. I worked on this project and ran pieces for the 30 blocks of Bonnie Hunters mystery in between. It works really well for me because I would get bored sewing all thirty of those blocks at the same time.
