Hopefully, like childbirth, you will just look at the end result with pride and forget about how it came into the world? :)) I guess starch helps, but boy I am getting lazy in my old age and would just rather use a fabric that doesn't need it.

I have just got some and yes, that purple is amazing, but, like you, I do find it quite slippy. <br /><br />I'm with Mari Quilts - I starch the life out of it!<br /><br /> Oh ... and I use my walking foot to piece. That REALLY helps :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07063909153475218313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072686062126950308.post-25051300993952204962011-05-14T13:39:53.325-07:002011-05-14T13:39:53.325-07:00I'm sorry your experience with the shot cotton...I'm sorry your experience with the shot cottons was so disappointing ......I'm in the middle of using them myself.
