One question on marking after reading both your post and Kristin's: am I understanding correctly that you are NOT sewing into the seam allowance in each seam, the way you would when machine piecing? You are starting and stopping your seams a 1/4 inch from the edge? Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425977539640711969noreply@blogger.com
