A {Scant} 1/4"

i have always preached the scant seam allowance in my classes.
i find that it makes a big difference, especially when piecing more difficult blocks.
amy, from diary of a quilter, has a fantastic tutorial on her blog. below are a couple pictures taken from her post, go here for the entire tutorial.



happy quilting!

Amys scant 1/4 inch visuals are fantastic. I've been using this tip for many moons - can't remember where I first heard it. But I testify that it works and your piecing is sooooo much more accurate. My Berninia accepts this step well and I do use my quarter inch foot with the built-in guide.
Thanks for passing the tip on.
