When I sew all 7 pieces together on the backing are the strips (6 x 3) folded or are they flat pieces of fabric?
At the very beginning of this post the very kind lady that had put it together said to take a 6" square and fold it in half , which leaves you with a 3x6 inch folded strip and press...All I did was take the six inch square and cut it in half. It eliminates the extra bulk of material that you are left with...you would then follow the rest of the tutorial as she explains it...
After you press your strip in half, you would then open it up and lay them on your backgrond fabric...
