Does anyone have an easy method for remembering which direction you sewed each strip?
Should I just use a perm. marker to mark an arrow in the seam allowance at the start of each strip? Or maybe there's an even easier solution . . . . please post any ideas.
Thanks!
When I stop to go do something else, I get the next strip all ready to sew by lining them up and putting them under the presser foot so that when I come back I can just start sewing. If I am leaving it for another day, I pin the end I want to start on and lay it in the direction I want to start.
