Shadow: I love your embroidered blocks-very cute. I always admire your work. I have a question: how do you iron your blocks so your seams lie so flat? I can always see a "fold" or something with mine-they aren't nice and flat like yours and others on the board. What am I doing wrong? I press, don't iron; set the stitches. Should I use steam? Sorry to be a pest but your blocks are always so perfect and when you posted these I hoped you wouldn't mind my questions. Thank you!!
