I'm a newish quilter and I've been using a similar method just by guess and by golly (not feeling confident enough to try matching up the ends and trusting I won't get a pucker). Your method is even better, though, because of the way you create the channel for the end piece at the beginning.<br /><br />Thanks for this!Heather Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10225483666564626507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8576390510207905741.post-74564856262895808702012-08-28T15:13:41.293-05:002012-08-28T15:13:41.293-05:00Elisabeth - Yes!
