    And there is our finished block. Remember

    to press your final seam open to reduce bulk.




    Of course these methods take

    practice as anything does, but the

    more you do the better you will

    become at achieving precision

    in your quilting.




    Good Luck!

    You have done an excellent tute. not only on pressing, but nicely shown piecing, too, Every beginner should watch this. You have made it look so simple and easy.
