Thread: ♥ Tip on Cutting Strips of Fabrics by Judy Martin, Quilt Author

That was a good site to explore

Thanks, craftybear. I have used this theory but only on borders. So, why not on short strips too. Makes sense.

She makes a very, very good case for cutting lengthwise.

Great information. Thank you!

That makes perfect sense to me. Thanks, Karen.

thank you crafty for the info

I mainly do log cabin variations and I always cut my strips on the lengthwise grain. It makes for much more stable blocks when it comes to joining and layering. I think perhaps it's a hang-over from my dressmaking days, but it works!

Thank you for the site and the tips.

Thanks for the link.

Thanks,
