She never bastes. Sometimes does not use a dowel. Amazing. Zip zip and she is done. Through seams and all. Sometimes she would have a little to trim off, sometimes she didn't. Experience! BTW, I have not subbed to AS&E in ages but all of my AS&E reference shows double basting. I never heard about the double dowel method until I read you or someone else post about it on HS&S. The next time I do one, I will do it that way.Missy Wertzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01183835861330993295noreply@blogger.com
