We have been using this method a lot lately in our SEW ALONGS and it is for sure used in most of our patterns, so I thought maybe it was time for a little refresher for those of you new to the method!

From the moment I discovered AURIFIL in my local quilt shop many years ago, I have literally never put anything else on my machine or, come to think of it, in my hand too.
