I'm relatively new to quilting this year and this is my first posting here. Would like basics really. Techniques to matching points and not twisting seams when ironing and such.

What I have learned or been taught is via a co-worker and here on the board.

Or am I one that is 'stuck in the middle"?

I will join you is this spot, I started just 2 years ago, borders and mitering get me every time. I an afraid to FM Have no clue on paper piecing, don't wander off the beginner blocks.
