    I am really going to try this out. My seams are usually fine, but sometimes they just don't come out right and I hate ripping seams just like everyone else.

    Working on a quilt right now with many seams I need to "flip". And yep, steam and the iron are my friend! It will lay flat when I am done. And no one will be the wiser.

    Clapper? Isn't the clapper the electronic gadget that turns your lights on and off? "Clap On, Clap off.. The clapper!"
