Very nice. Was that fabric unpressed? It seems that would skew the finished size. Do you fold the fabric twice for WOF cuts? Or cut the 22 inch width? I do mine wide, but would like to try folding.

I have been doing mine folded once since I was having trouble with the double folds. I haven't tried this tip, but I have adjusted the fabric this way for the single fold and it works great.

I wash mine, btw.
