    How to fix and prevent flipped seams

    Flipped seams drive me crazy! This might help a new quilter:

    Today I'm going to show you how to fix and prevent flipped seam allowances.  I'm sure this has happened to every quilter at some point.  You've nested your seams and pinned them securely.  You stitch

      I like the washi tape bridge idea. I'm going to have to go look at my machine.

        This was something that I did not know ... (but there's a lot that I don't know) ... thanks for sharing. I am going to give this a try.

          Thanks for sharing. It seems like this happens several times with each quilt I make. I like the washi tape idea.

              Hmmm I am just lazy and leave it but I shall try this. I shall also check out the washi tape method you mentioned. Ohhh I see the tape method, cool, I did not know. Thanks for educating me today.
