Can anyone help me with mitred corners?
I am just finishing up my first quilt and I can't get my mitred corners to look right. I've watched lots of videos on Youtube and they make it look so simple. I follow step by step but when I fold them down at the corners it seems like there is too much fabric and batting underneath the quilt top that it won't make a nice flat corner. It look horrible. I can even see the back corner area bulging up when I look at it from the front side because it just seeems to me there is too much stuff under it. I have 1/4" seam allowance the entire way around so I don't think it can be that. If anyone would have any ideas on how to remedy this I would be very grateful. Thanks
By the way, this is the first time I have ever posted a thread also. If I did it wrong or something isn't right I apologize. It wasn't intentional.
