Twirling- interesting!
http://laquilter.blogspot.com/2009/0...ing-seams.html http://www.perkinsdrygoods.com/blog/...g-those-seams/ http://lavieenrosie.typepad.com/lavi...-a-poppin.html I, too, found that setting the seam makes it easier to fold over v. cold. |
I set all my seams before I press them to one side. It 'sinks' the piecing thread into the fabric and results in much flatter/squarer/truer blocks when done. For me, it does make a big difference and is worth the time, but if you really can't tell any difference with yours, it may not be worth the bother.

Sorry to be ignorant, but what do you mean by 'twirling'? It's not a term that I've come across before.

Bonnie Hunter had pictures and instructions on her blog how to piece the so the seams always twirl. All the longarmers I've used said my quilts were problem free. Too bad I can't say the same for most LA's I've used. LOL
