I just sorted my scraps this weekend and am planning to make a sampler out of some of the. I have choosen my BH&G 501 Quilt Blocks Book to use to make blocks for it. The blocks are all 4 in. finished and I've decided I want to leave them that size rather than scalling them up. Problem is some of them I'd like to do have very tiny pieces (ie. flying geese 1/2 by 1 in. and some even smaller, etc. ). I will probably paper piece them because I'd go nuts trying to do it with out. My problem is I don't know how to handle the seam allowances on those tiny pieces. If I use 1/4 seam, some of the pieces are so small I'm affraid the seam allowances will create issues.
So, those of you who do miniautre quilts, or even just blocks with tiny pieces how do you handle those seam allowances to minimize bulk and to have things lay and look nice? Any think else to keep in mind when working with tiny pieces?
TIA!
