Yes, here they sell this specific kind of fabric (especially Jinny Beyer's fabric) cut on strips... american fabric are sold here for something like US30.00 per yard, sometimes!!!!

Cutting on strips this kind of fabric is a lot helpful for us!

That's kind of neat, when you are doing any of the kaleido variations! When I tried 4PP I did just that, cut strips down the side of the fabric to try it out. That way I knew if I didn't like what resulted I hadn't wasted a whole bunch of fabric.

How wide would these strips be that you can buy? Or perhaps it varies as to the fabric? Are there other uses? or is it pretty much just for quilting uses. Kind of like a jelly roll, I guess, just one fabric!

Of course I liked it ... and continued on to cut up the rest of the piece!! :)
