    Month 6

    I'm using a new product, Quilters Select Print & Piece for the foundation piecing. It is easy to stitch on and went through the printer one sheet at a time. Tried stacking the sheets and printing but they stuck together. It is partially water soluble so it won't have to be removed which I find a bit tire some to do. My only concern is the bulk in the seam allowance when it has to be pressed open. Anyone tried this product before?

    Haven't heard of that particular product before, so I cannot help, beyond suggesting that you make small sample -perhaps a mug rug, and give it a wash to see how it handles.

        Looking good, so far. Like your colours, especially with the green border in there.
