Are you serious?! I think that is the coolest thing I've seen/learned about quilting...ever! Brillant - thanks for sharing!

Should I starch before cutting or before I sew the two together. Looks like a great way to make a lot of them.

I love Best Press instead of starch. It doesn't leave a residue on my fabric, gives it just enough body to hold and the best part is it smells good and no mess on my flat iron. The quilt in my avatar has lots of quarter square trianges around the outside and none of them stretched thanks so Best Press.

Most fabric shops carry it. I think Joann's might too. It's called Mary Ellen's Best Press. Do a search on Google, you'll see it. Then you'll know what your looking for at the shop.
