Lucky you! <br /><br />When I was sewing a few times I sewed with the larger piece on top, like you, and it worked okay. It felt better to have it the other way around to me. I spent a lot of time figuring out my tension and things so didn't want any more things to go wrong once I did get to sewing! I usually don't pin but in the class it seemed the right thing to do. <br /><br />Always enjoy your posts - thank you again for coming by!June Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04417665719096002149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-674398292066785107.post-78493896189131105552014-09-17T05:49:11.744-07:002014-09-17T05:49:11.744-07:00Don't laugh at me, but I find it easier to sew...Don't laugh at me, but I find it easier to sew these the other way around, with the quarter circle on the bottom and the <i>outside-of-the-circle</i> piece on top.I don't pin, just make sure the two pieces are aligned at the beginning edge and trust that it will line up when I get to the other edge. One of the great thing about using pieces cut from a die is that they are sized perfectly and if I suspend disbelief and just put them together, they almost always turn out just fine. You can see a bunch I made that way last summer in <a href="http://sophiejunction.blogspot.com/2013/08/my-quilters-origin-story.html" rel="nofollow">this post</a>.sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13408822963659450038noreply@blogger.com
