It is said that sewing multiple strips in one direction will bow the fabric.
Yep, this is what it means! :thumbup: Before I knew any better I sewed about 3-4 strips together. The first one or two looked fine, but as I added other ones the bottom started to curl (or bow). Each one that was added to the strip caused it to curl even more. Haven't done that again!! :wink:
