    Mosquitosewgirl-the glue drop idea came from someone very smart here a few weeks ago when I asked how I could match up my points (I used a triangle template that had a blunt top to it so I didn't have dog-ears at the center of my hexagons-this made matching up the points when sewing the rows together very hard). It worked amazingly well. I want to look for those metal fine pointed glue dispensor caps to make it easier to apply a tiny drop.

    Angelina M you quilt is stunning - I have made one of these and used a darker background fabric - I would think about making one out of the red colorway because of all the work involved in this type of quilt I think there is not enough contrast - that contrast is what makes your quilt so stunning. If I ever do another one it will have high contrast in the fabric like yours.So beautiful
