Never heard of the squirt bottle thing but it sounds much too much like work to me. If you're doing borders, you just measure length/width of the quilt at various points and get an average, then cut your borders so that everything evens out, and that's it.<BR/><BR/>I Maria Stahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860866965815658652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9494675.post-85740356927430343422008-06-06T12:13:00.000-05:002008-06-06T12:13:00.000-05:00I also love how you are storing your fat quarters!...I also love how you are storing your fat quarters!

And I don't know how to square up quilts; I heard something about pinning it to the carpet and spraying water on it and yanking... does that really work?? My Labradorable would find the whole process exciting: "I get to lay on it, right?? Where's the spray bottle? WHERE'S THE SPRAY BOTTLE?! Me next!!" By the way, how can I post a picture of my FBF?Shallowsisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11764845938502744142noreply@blogger.com
