Well, I'm a little farther behind than you gals... I am still on part 4. I did another 20 strings yesturday while playing with my new toy (a viking sapphire 785), so that makes 34 strings sewn- with only 14 of those trimmed down- and 30 more to go lol. I think these things take too long for me lol. It would be easier if I already had all my strips cut, but I am too scared to cut all my scraps and am just not sure how much I need.
