norwegian woods

[jcraven58]

2014-01-19 07.26.18.jpgthis is the first time I'm not following a pattern for a lap quilt. I am using Norwegian woods layer cake,and moda weaves charm pack. I have sewn 6 rows of four layer cakes together, and appliqued the weave charm pack as diamonds on all corner seams. My question is, should I trim the fabric under the charms? Of the 15 charms, you can see some of layer cake through three of them.

Re: norwegian woods

If you can see the under fabric and it bothers you, then cut or trim it off. Could you press the fabric so that the corner doesn't show ?? It is whatever makes you happy...
If trimmed off, then there is less bulk to sew thru.. and more scraps to work with.
