I use Teflon coated fiberglass sheets as pressing sheets. They get super hot, no stretch or drag when pressing and no sheen left behind. Great vid.

So glad I came across your video; I am in the process of planning a HST table runner, and some of my practice blocks came out a little wonky. Now I know why - your ironing tip, I think, will make all the difference. I'm not so sure on the spiraling of the seams, though. It works, I've seen dozens of videos demonstrating it and it definitely works, but I just can't seem to grok how to do it. How do you know which stitches to clip, and which way to spiral? I've managed it once or twice, however I have no idea what I did differently on those to make it work. Well, maybe someday I'll figure it out, LOL! Perhaps the hammer method will be my go-to on those instead 🙂 Thank you for sharing; I've saved this to my "sewing tips & tricks" folder and I'm sure I'll be watching it again.

Thank you so much for watching and your kind words. I known spinning the seams is tricky. I will see if I can outline some steps to help you. 🌻
