y-seams
I hope someone can help me with this problem...I'm trying to make a star block per Edyta Sitar's instructions. She is a wonderful teacher and I thought that her instructions were pretty
straight forward,but I just can't get my block to lie flat. I don't have time right now to post a picture,but hopefully someone can give me some advice? Thanks so much, Gina

It is hard to give advice without a photo. You have to be so precise with y seams. I would check your seams with a ruler and see if they are off just a tiny bit. Doesn't take much to be off and your quilt won't lay flat.

I'm not sure of the instruction you're using but this video is the one I used when learning to do y-seams. Its a little long but really informative.
