I like to give myself a little extra because the strips can move a little when you flip and slide them under the presser foot. I prefer 2" wide strips. Did you see my original post that talks a little bit about fabric requirements?

I am wondering if you have any idea just how much fabric is required? can I use a fat eighth and have it be enough, what about a honey buns. I am having a hard time deciding, since I don't know just how much fabric I will need.

I have a question. In the video you said to use 2 1/2 inch strips but on the written tutorial, I thought you said 2 inches. Will 2" work? Were you just being generous when you talked about 2 1/2"?LJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01612629420194084787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111251612193454477.post-90001351840924038932022-01-31T09:49:38.647-07:002022-01-31T09:49:38.647-07:00Hi, Amber.
