Master the Perfect 1/4″ Seam Allowance (Sewing Tips & Tricks)

Ever wondered if a scant 1/4” seam or a regular 1/4” seam gives you a true 1/4” after sewing? In this video, I put both to the test by sewing 2” strips together and measuring the final results. Accuracy matters in quilting, and the right seam allowance can make all the difference!

Watch as I compare the two methods, explain why a scant seam is often recommended, and share tips to help you achieve perfect piecing in your quilts. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and leave a comment on which seam allowance you prefer!

I’m Barry — a retired electrician who traded wires for fabric and found a new passion in quilting. Since retiring in 2021, I’ve enjoyed the freedom to create, travel, and share my projects on my YouTube channel, Barry Quilts. Retirement has given me the time to do what I love most — make, learn, and inspire others along the way.
