I really like the idea someone posted elsewhere about adding a contrasting square to the end of each strip when first sewing them together end to end.
And definitely don't forget to chop off some from the first strip.
Thank you, that was helpful. I was thinking it would take at least two jelly rolls or the equivalent, but it seems it needs almost three.
