My quilt pieces were never perfect. Now they are!
My ¼” seams were perfect, but my finished pieces were not. My new Janome with its ¼” foot was letting me down. I hadn’t even realized it until I started a postage stamp quilt. I was losing almost ½” every 10 squares. That’s a LOT! Recommended by Harriet Hargrave, I purchased this seam guide to try to get perfect SCANT ¼” seams. It works perfectly! And so easy…just drop the needle through the hole, and place a permanent guide of some type at the edge of the Plastic Seam Guide. I also purchased QTools Sewing Edge, an adhesive purple vinyl strip, which I used as my sewing guide. Instantly my seams went from troublesome to perfect. If your pieces aren’t perfect because your seams are too big, this will solve the problem. I wish I’d done this long ago. Someday I may search for the perfect ¼” foot, but for now I’m one happy piecing-machine.
