Puckered Clams
This is a darling pattern, and I am an experienced seamstress. Still, the clams came out puckered. I have gottent he piece wet and dried it, to shrink the clams, but no luck. Any way to avoid puckers?

bias-strip clamshells
I have always wanted to make a clamshell quilt and this how-to article has really motivated me to try this technique. It looks really easy.
