The Scant Quarter Inch, What Is It?

Scant Quarter Inch

If you've attended one of my lectures on the Amazing Economy Quilt, you've heard me mention what a difference it makes when you calibrate for the perfect scant 1/4". Here are two slides from one of my presentations.




I also read a great Moda Blog that you may appreciate.

    I'm new to quilting and thought "scant 1/4 inch" was only used when it was specified in the pattern.
    So reading this and the Moda blog, it is always used in piecing a quilt?
    I just made my first Stepping Stone quilt. I thought I had a perfect 1/4 inch seam allowance marked on my machine, but I had to trim all my squares to 7 3/4 inches. It still turned out just fine.
    I guess I need to recalibrate to a "scant 1/4 inch."
    Thank you for your help!
    PS - love your YouTube videos!
