I went to quiltville.com and printed the directions for the bargello quilt. I cut all my strips (2 1/2 x 16) and I sewed the first group of 32 together and made the tube. I pressed seams all in one direction and now I'm ready to cut my strips. My question is: with 32 strips sewed together that's a very large tube to try to cut straight rows...know what I mean? Is there a more manageable way of doing this???
Also, the directions say to cut all rows 2 1/2". That's not going to give the design any "movement" is it? I thought rows were cut in different widths.
