    Default another minky question

    I won a package of cuddle cakes [10 inch squares] . Do I use 1/4 or 1/2 inch for the seams? I think 1/4 inch would be fine but somewhere in the back of my mind I think I read that it is 1/2 inch seam.

    Congrats on your win. Isn't it fun to win something?

    Here's a great site that gives 10 good tips. She recommends 1/2" or 5/8" seam allowance. Also, don't iron the minky. If you are using the kind with the little raised dots, ironing will flatten them. (Ask me how I know this!).
