hang in there, you might want to length your stitches. i've found that helps with blocks laying flat.

and remember to press the seams in alternating directions this way you can nest them to each other when sewing the rows together. it helps to line up those seams.

i use a bamboo skewer to keep things lined up when i'm passing it thru the needle on the machine. you don't have to worry if the needle hits the skewer your needle won't break.

YW - I was confused for a bit myself! Now I'm pre-washing my fabric, so I can sew my blocks. The sooner I get them done, the better I'll sleep! I guess my 'sleeping' self doesn't like me to say, 'I'm in!' LOL
