Rhonda, did I miss what kind of thread you use? It looks thick. Going back to check.

I just use regular thread. I have always just bought my thread at Walmart. The cheap use to be 50 cent now is $1 thread.

Do you use several strands?

I just use a plain old thread and needle. Just one strand and double and knot at the bottom. I don't usually knot but you get the picture. Nothing special just take a stitch or two in the same place and trim off the thread leaving a small tail.

Brilliant!! That will make paper-piecing easier when you have several pieces to put together. Thanks!!

I'll certainly try this. Thanks for sharing.

I have got to try that. Maybe the seams of my points will line up better.
