Not sure what your pattern looks like, but I have better luck if I piece in smaller square chunks rather than long strips.
Yes, they line up perfectly with each other. I sew a row of 4, then attached those 4 rows in a block of 4x4. I do 5 times, then sew the 5 blocks together to make a row. I tried to use pins, but the blocks are so small I couldn't feed them into my machine without getting poked. I'm working on a pattern than a fellow QB wrote. I'm testing it for her.
