"argue" is too strong a word. my very sincere apologies.

it just floors me sometimes the way we pass on the opinions of "experts" as though they were absolute and unquestionable. after all, the only reason they get to call themselves experts is that we have agreed to also call them experts. :lol:

our technique, fabric, tool and supply choices should be based on the results of our own experiments. no one thing works for everybody. not even Elvis. :lol:

i started sewing mine at an angle just to prove to myself i could do it and keep the strips straight. i kept doing it because i decided i preferred the way it looked.

try it each way and then do what you prefer. unless you enter it into a contest who cares what others think? even then i wouldn't actually care. i'd just do "whatever" to satisfy the judges.
