Quilt piecing instructions often say to start the seam 1/4 inch away from the corner of the fabric. This can be tricky, especially when you want to reinforce the beginning of the seam. I find it is easier to turn the pieces around and sew TOWARD the beginning point, stop with the needle down, turn the fabric 180 degrees and sew on to the end. This technique is especially helpful when making that dreaded "Y" seam.
Happy quilting!
