I was intrigued by the five long strips. She has a tip about that.
I do not know if you are a long time quilter but I am sure you are more experienced then I.
Do you have any tips for those long strips or do you concur with hers?

Oh I guess I haven't done the 4th yet ... I haven't done any joining of the long strips. I saw the QSTs and knew I had done those.

Yes, her suggestion to sew from opposite ends is a good one. If you sew all from the same end, the strip set can tend get a curl in it. So if you go opposite ways at it, then it will help to keep them all nice and straight!
