    It would be a waste if you threw them out, but you are giving them away. No guilt indeed.

    She was vague on how it worked and I checked on You Tube and didn't see anything. I think you're right and I don't see any advantage to it either. Thanks.

    Press and Seal for EPP

    Someone today was talking about using Press and Seal for fussy cutting in the EPP process. Does anyone know how this is done? The gal wasn't sure other than Press and Seal was used.

    Check for cotton shirts or blouses at garage sales or thrift stores. Use only 100% cotton. Many are great choices for quilts. It's amazing how much fabric is in a shirt.

    I think the only time I would have a concern is if I were hand quilting. Extra layers make it harder. If you are tying or machine quilting, it will be just fine.

    I would only worry about cutting away the back if it was an area I wanted to hand quilt. Not fun going through more layers of fabric. If you are quilting by machine, it doesn't really matter.

    I love tying quilts with fat batts. Good luck in machine quilting with the thick batting. The fat batt makes it so warm and cozy to snuggle with. I have enough love of all things quilted!!!

    I have never seen a method like this. Thanks for posting this. One question, could you use the same type of paper for both the tracing and stencil? I'm thinking like parchment paper.
