I always leave a piece of thread when I started a new direction. Then I would start sewing from opposite end.

I don't get it. If you cut your strips across the grain, selvage to selvage, your set of strips will have a bow no matter what. All the extra steps are so unnecessary, if the strips are cut with the grain. A cross grain strips which is 40 to 42 inches will loose control one way or the other and the stretch will give a bad set of strips.

The same thing happens when border is cut on the cross grain.

Yes, he is a hunk! I was in hopes when he talked about stripping, that he was really going to do it! I already knew about switching ends for sewing to avoid the arc. I wanted to see some real stripping!

Did you notice the pin cushion wrapping around his forearm? I have certainly never seen a pin cushion that looked so good!
