Seams are often more secure when they are pressed to one side, rather than open. Especially in this case it helps with helping the patchwork line up and the seams nest when the seams are pressed to alternating directions. I personally only press my seams open when I have a lot of points meeting in one space and it helps with the bulk.
This is the first time I finally understand this process! Thank you so much.
You are so very welcome glad it was so helpful for you!
So good! Easy tutorial for a concept that I couldn’t quite figure out. Thanks!
So glad this was helpful for you!!
I love the grid on your sewing machine. Can you get one that fits individual sewing machine? My sewing machine is called New Home. 😊
It called a grid glider it’s a sew steady product. The extension table is from Sew Steady and you can get them customized for your sewing machine!
Thank you for this! I had been wondering how this worked!
Yay, so glad this was helpful for you Robyn!!
Thank you!
New quilter here- Why don’t you press the seams open? Thank you.
