Agree .... I learned that way back when I did an Eleanor Burns QIAD class about 1990.
I think she had a different name for it. Forget what it was though.

It just comes automatically for me now, when I sew a bunch of blocks together.

You do that across your whole quilt and end up with it all attached( or webbed) . This keeps everything in the right position and then you just sew the hirizontal seams. I think Bonnie added the video to her site www.quiltville.blogspot.ca but it is also in her Quiltcam video on YouTube.

Yes, Eleanor Burns has had this in her books for years.

Cute quilt! It's going to make a nice lap quilt for any cat lover!

I didn't know there was a special name for that technique. I used it years ago to put together my Trip Around the World quilt.
