it helps when sewing strips together to alternate the ends you start sewing on, this keeps the strips from bowing...so you start the first strip set of two...stitch down the two strips, then turn and add the next strip to the end you just cut your thread from...it is really important when working with bargello's or any strip pieced quilts. i would be hesitant to blame the lqs fabric, unless you have steamed and ironed the fabric out of shape.
