Quilting Tip of the Week 4.17.14

Starting today, I will be posting a quilting/sewing tip of the week. Here's mine!

Save your plastic closures from your bakery bags and with a Sharpie mark your tags with row numbers. These are great to place on the top block and pin on using the center slot. It's amazing how quickly you can collect enough for a large quilt!

Do you have a tip to share? Send it along, perferably with a photo in .JPEG format.
