Thanks Judie and Elaine, I'll give both methods a try on small pieces
and see what I'm most comfortable with. I told my DH I was having a
problem and his answer was, Have you asked your sewing friends yet? You
know they'll have answers for you. He thinks a highly of this group as I
do. He knows how many times I've gotten help with problems here.
