Ok, fireworkslover, I've got to see this or one of your other quilts...please?
What you said is just the problem I have.

If you use strips longer than you need, like the width of your fabric, you end up cutting off the excess within one or two seams later. I'd not try to save fabric by cutting each piece before you sew it on. You have to remember that the fabric will flip over in the end and thus be reversed from how you look at it, when sewing on the line. I think this might be the part that gets people confused.
I'm in the middle of my 4th PP fireworks themed quilt, right now. Each circle of color has 216 pieces! Really, I'm not joking. :lol:[/quote]
