    The table topper is very pretty. I esp like the "tail" in the 2nd pic.

    Use double sided scotch tape to hold the matching seams in place before sewing. Be careful not to sew through the tape.

    Thank you, thank you for the tute! Gives me the courage to tackle it on the quilt that has stalled at that step.

    To keep the sasing matching I use cornerstone evem if it will be the same fabric. Works everytime.

    Looks great, and don't tell anyone and know one will notice that you think it is off.

    When I worked with sashing I did not know how to line them up, so I just made a little clip in the sashing across from each seam on the first side I sewed. That way when I went to sew on the second row of blocks and sashing, everything was easier to line up. If you don't want to make small clips, you could use little dots of ink or something to mark where the seams are supposed to be. I hope this is helpful? If not ask again, and I will try to make my method clearer.

    Looks very good to me. Don't worry bout it. No one will notice I bet, especially if you don't point it out to them.
