How to Fix and Prevent Flipped Seam Allowances
| August 10, 2018 | Quilting How-To
It’s Not You, It’s Your Machine!
There’s nothing quite so annoying as finishing a block and turning it over to discover that some of the seam allowances have flipped the wrong way. Then what?
You can press them down and hope they don’t show, grab the seam ripper and redo those sections, or clip the seam allowance so they flip the right way.
As with many things, prevention is a better choice. Julie Cefalu from The Crafty Quilter has a very easy fix. It has nothing to do with you and everything to do with your machine. One piece of tape does the trick!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
