I've been away from this site while I worked on my first watercolor quilt.
I got a lot of squishies from several generous members of this group and I bought a lot of fabric to cut up into 2" pieces. The design process was more difficult than I anticipated but I now have my project pieced and am now ready to attach borders.
My project is about 30" x 30" and is only reasonably square. With all those seams the whole thing is fairly stretchy (springy) and I can pull in the right places to get everthing square. When I turn loose, it springs back to slightly unsquare.
Can I dampen (or steam) the project, stretch it into square, fasten it down someway and let it dry to get the project square before starting on borders?
As you can tell, I'm a quilting novice and every project is a real test. Help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
