I'm really liking the way the fabric looks after it is starched. Is it possible to overdo the starchy thing? I have read that 3 layers of starch are recommended. I started out starching my first stack of blocks, then decided to starch as I press each seam. If it is too much maybe it will wash out.

I generally apply up to three LIGHT layers of starch mist. I don't want to get the fabric wet. The object is to make the seam allowance lay down flat and the edge of the seam that is ironed over to have a crisp edge. It will all wash out once the quilt top is quilted.
You are doing a great job! Thanks for writing and letting me know your blog address. I will check in every chance I get.
